Rest API filter quote

Question

I am using the SharePoint rest API, I need to quote a string in the filter query.
This is my query:

?$filter=MyField eq 'aaa'aaa'

How can I search the string " aaa'aaa "?

Thanks

Use two quotes. That is for 'aaa'aaa' use 'aaa''aaa'

This also works in other areas of the REST API, such as checking in a file with single quotes in the comment.
