Using Okta from Java Application to authenticate with Sharepoint

Question

I'm building a Java application to extract files from Sharepoint using Sharepoint's REST api. First I need to authenticate, our organisation uses OKTA to obtain a token.

The example code I'm using is:

CredentialsProvider credsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
     credsProvider.setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY,
        new NTCredentials(user, pwd, "", ""));

HttpHost target = new HttpHost("organisation.sharepoint.com", 80, "http");

     HttpClientContext context = HttpClientContext.create();
     context.setCredentialsProvider(credsProvider);

     // The authentication is NTLM.
     // To trigger it, we send a minimal http request
     HttpHead request1 = new HttpHead("/");
     CloseableHttpResponse response1 = null;
     try {
       response1 = httpclient.execute(target, request1, context);
       EntityUtils.consume(response1.getEntity());
       System.out.println("1 : " + response1.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());

I need to modify the NTLM code to use Okta instead to make the call to Sharepoint with context set.

Any help appreciated!

I achieved this. See this post: stackoverflow.com/questions/37140940/… — Hritcu Andrei

Unfortunately, this is not achievable at the moment. This feature has been requested and will be reviewed by engineering. However, it is not actively being worked on as of right now.
