MFA Authentication to snowflake using OKTA

In our SNOWFLAKE Environment, Password login is disabled and authentication is through OKTA only for all users. When we are trying import a table from snowflake, it is asking for username and credentials. Since, users doesn't have credentials, they are unable to bring any new table and also cannot preview data asset. I see that there is an option to use OKTA while creating platform connection(see attachment).

So, it would be great, if we get a feature on cloudpak that would use MFA enabled OKTA to send text/Alert to users phone/email for authentication and let users get data from SNOWFLAKE after being authenticated with OKTA.

Please see case#TS017498673 for additional details.
