Custom fields in JQL searches are referenced using the abbreviation 'cf' followed by their ID inside square brackets '[id]', so your URL would be:

URL = 'https://xyz.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=status="In+Progress"+and+cf[10029]=125&fields=id,key,status'

Make sure you properly encode the square brackets in UTF-8 format in your language's encoding method.

PS. Generally speaking, it's much easier to reference custom fields in JQL searches by their names, not their IDs. It makes the search URL easier to read and understand what is being searched for.
