@Anonymous ,

Thanks for reaching out to Q&A.

You can refer to the below articles that will guide you in connecting from Sharepoint hosted addin

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/sp-add-ins/authorization-and-authentication-of-sharepoint-add-ins

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/sp-add-ins/authorization-code-oauth-flow-for-sharepoint-add-ins

You can also explore using MSAL js in SP addin

The sharepoint hosted addins are legacy and I would suggest using the SpFx : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/spfx/web-parts/guidance/connect-to-api-secured-with-aad

I hope this helps!
