You use an attenuator or 'pad' to reduce the level. At its simplest, this can be a 2-3 resistor network, even a single resistor in line with the signal. Or you can buy a line-to-mic attenuator at an electronics ...

If you are playing back some electronic file in to the mic input, it would be a better bet to ...
