I am developing a system in which I have to integrate paypal. In the backend the system itself uses an internal API(I do have many systems communicates to core like web, mobile app etc). Consider the case of web, I am planning to approve the payment using the Paypal Rest API, so the user will be redirected to Paypal and approves the payment and then the system communicates with the internal api and then the actual payment has to be completed.
When going through the docs, I can see Payment->Execute need to be done after the approval. Also I can see Authorize and, Capture later as in other payment systems. So I am confused with the significance of execute method?

PayPal allows you to make payments using a variety of methods including: PayPal balance, a bank account, PayPal Credit, debit or credit cards, and rewards balance.
The authorization places the funds on hold with the customer's bank. When the transaction is captured, the funds transfer process will occur. This can be useful in situations where you need to make a sale, but won't be able to ship merchandise for several days.
PayPal authorization and capture is a settlement solution that provides increased flexibility in obtaining payments from buyers. During a traditional sale, the authorization and capture occurs at the same time as the sale.

When you create the payment, you can the intent of the payment to be 'sale', 'authorize' or 'order'. For each of these you need to call payment->Execute, but the difference is in what happens after
