From what I understand, there is a big chance you want to access an application using Okta issued token.

You need to reach out to the application developers to identify how to properly retrieve a token. There are lots of ways to authenticate using Okta and without more information it's gonna be hard to help you out.

Once you have all those information you should be able to use any python module providing requests authentication classes for the authentication flow that you have to use.

Disclaimer: I wrote requests-auth providing Okta authentication classes that can be used with requests (nominated in the Okta developer community award).
