How to add an issue from another organization to my project with the GraphQL API?

Question

Body

The Projects UI permits adding an issue from an organization to another organization's project. We just need to enter the URL of the issue inside the "Add item" input field.

Apparently, the same functionality is not available through the GraphQL API. If I try to add the issue using the addProjectV2ItemById mutation I get the validation error "Unable to add the item. The Issue or Pull Request must belong to a repository owned by xxxxxx".

Am I doing something wrong?
Will this option be available in the future?
