CLI-3555: Run command with cloud api key instead of user login

[michie1]

Currently I have a service account with a specific role and a cloud api key. I would like to run a command (e.g. creating a role binding) by using this cloud api key.

confluent login is only meant to login a user (with email+password or SSO) and confluent api-key store/use is only meant for kafka clusters, if I'm not mistaken.

My current workaround would be to use the Confluent Cloud API I think, but it would be nice if we could use the confluent cli as well. Did I miss something or is this not possible?

H Confluent team, any updates on this?

We would also be interested in this functionality, so that we can use the Confluent CLI to automatically run some commands against Confluent Cloud from a shell script running inside a service.
