Hi Albert, We discussed this separately, but for anybody else who comes across this, GitHub Enterprise's API does not support services like Okta for authenticating with the API for retrieving an API token. It requires a username and password, according to their documentation and that error message (which is coming from GitHub Enterprise).
Given that, you will need a standard user on GitHub Enterprise that you can use for authentication. That user's credentials will *not* be stored. Only the resulting token will be.
