You can use the REST API to create comments on issues and pull requests. Every pull request is an issue, but not every issue is a pull request.

This endpoint triggers notifications. Creating content too quickly using this endpoint may result in secondary rate limiting. See "Secondary rate limits" and "Dealing with secondary rate limits" for details.
