Shibboleth - from web page to REST API

[rch99]

Good day,

The scenario is this: 

1. There is a web application with a browser UI. 
2. User has to log in to the Web UI. We would use Shibboleth for
authentication (SSO) 
3. The application connects to various back-end components via REST API's 
4. We are considering the REST API's are hooked with Shibboleth through the
Shibboleth Service Provider

Once logged in the web app should pass the use context (session) to the REST
API.

Is this scenario supported by Shibboleth? 
What is the best way to pass the session context to the REST API so that it
validates the session through its service provider?

Thanks
