SNOW-3000366: `snow connection generate-jwt` ignores `--temporary-connection` parameter

[mrebiai]

SnowCLI version

3.14.0

Python version

3.12.3

Platform

Linux-6.14.0-37-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.39

What happened

I would like to generate a Snowflake JWT

• with snowflake-cli
• without any config.toml

So I try to use this command line :

PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE=xxx snow connection generate-jwt --temporary-connection --authenticator SNOWFLAKE_JWT --account xxx.west-europe.azure --user MY_USER --private-key-file my-private-key.pem

But I have got this error message :

Connection None is not configured

The parameter --temporary-connection seems to be ignored by snow connection generate-jwt.
https://docs.snowflake.com/en/developer-guide/snowflake-cli/connecting/configure-connections#use-a-temporary-connection.

It works with snow sql :

PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE=xxx snow sql -q "select 42 as FOO;" --temporary-connection --format JSON --authenticator SNOWFLAKE_JWT --account xxx.west-europe.azure --user MY_USER --role MY_ROLE --warehouse MY_WH --database MY_DB --schema MY_SCHEMA --private-key-file my-private-key.pem

Result

[
    {
        "FOO": 42
    }
]

Console output

Connection None is not configured

How to reproduce

PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE=xxx snow connection generate-jwt --temporary-connection --authenticator SNOWFLAKE_JWT --account xxx.west-europe.azure --user MY_USER --private-key-file my-private-key.pem
