If your CAS Server has the REST API module loaded, you could collect the
username and password within an MS Access form and use REST to
authenticate the user and retrieve a TGT.
Otherwise, you can host the IE/Browser control in a form and I believe
that would give you access to the cookie store programmatically. You
could display the login page, and pull the TGT once the authentication
is successfully.

Hello Community,
I don't know too much about CAS yet, but I've been doing a lot of research.
We are currently writing an app in Microsoft Access and we would like our
authentication process to connect with the CAS system we already use.
We are brainstorming two ways to do this: (1)Have our app open up a browser
directed to a pre-existing login page and have the user authenticate using
that and the app would grab credentials/permissions from either the cookie or
ticket created. or, (2)Re-create the login and authentication process by
somehow integrating CAS directly into the M.Access app.
What would be the most efficient way to do this? And how would we go about
doing it?
Best wishes!
