I would setup a domain user that has access to the site and use that in the connection string.

      The user in the connection string would need permissions to access the site. You can try with your user name and password as a test. If it works then I would have your infrastructure team setup a domain user "service account" on your network that then can access the site. You can test with the service account by holding the shift key down right click on Microsoft Edge. Then you can "Run as different user" and enter the service account.
