Confluence Search by Excluding a Label


My company uses Confluence for our documentation, and one of the suggestions was to label a section of Archived documents; and then be able to search by excluding that label.

There seems to be no way that I've found to do that so far, I can label things, but it seems the Confluence itself does not allow for the exclusion of a label when searching. I tried to use the NOT command, with no luck.

Does anyone have a macro or any idea how this could be done?
