SharePoint Authentication

I'm trying to integrate our SharePoint site with Oxgyen Editor (v.19) through CMS. I have the SP server added, but we don't use a username and password (we use a Common Access Card (CAC) that I'm assuming uses LDAP for authentication, but this isn't my field of expertise). When we open our SharePoint site in Internet Explorer it never asks for our credentials, because it automatically authenticates it based on the logged in user. How would I go about authenticating the SP users and passwords for Oxygen? Or is that something I can't do on my end (I don't have admin access)?

I believe you are using Single Sign On (SSO) on the SharePoint site. Currently (as of 21.1) Oxygen does not support SSO authentication for SharePoint. So, unfortunately, it's not possible for Oxygen to authenticate on SharePoint without a username and password. This means the SharePoint site has to allow user/password authentication (depends on the site configuration).
