PGT and PTs allow applications to securely access other services (REST, SOAP, POX, IMAP, etc) on behalf of the user.
An application can request a PGT when it validates a ST. Using the PGT the application can request a PT from CAS for a target service (REST endpoint). The application sends the PT along with the https request to the REST endpoint. The REST endpoint validates the PT against the CAS service and if it is valid gets back the authenticated username, and the proxing service id. Using this information the target service can decided how to respond to the request.
