Bug Description

Expectation:

nmcli dev wifi connect 'SSID' password 'password'

This command should cause nmcli to connect to a wifi network.

It works this way on every other Linux distribution.

However, on Ubuntu nmcli returns:

Error: 'dev wifi' command 'connect' is not valid.

What version of netwok-manager do you have? I cannot reproduce the problem with network-manager 0.9.7.995+git201301311547.17123fc-0ubuntu1. Does upgrading to this version fix it for you?
