We are trying to use our AppleTV for screen mirroring and prompted to enter the passcode, but when we are to enter the passcode that appears on the screen, we don’t get a keyboard to allow us to enter the code.
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
Hello 75Frustrated and welcome to Apple Support Communities. It appears you are having some difficulty with a passcode for screen mirroring to an Apple TV device.

You may need to tap of click (depending on if this is from a Mac or an iOS device) in the field for the passcode before you're able to type the passcode in.
Cheers.

I have this same problem trying to start Screen Mirroring on iPad Pro running iPadOS 14.4. In the AirPlay code dialog, no amount of clicking or anything else seems to raise the keyboard when this problem occurs.
Restarting the iPad is the only fix I am aware of.
Seems like the reset to the iPhone/iPad is the best option. Thanks all!
found a very simple solution: just do a hard reset of your iPhone and keyboard comes back
I am using an IPhone 12 pro and have the same issue: the password and/or code field in Screen mirroring does not present a keyboard. I tried to tap on the field many times but nothing!!!
same thing here...trying to share my phone screen to my tv and don’t have the option to use a keyboard to enter the 4 digit passcode.
Same here!
The P doesn’t register on the phone so I can unlock it
Resetting the phone worked. Another legendary apple software quality phenomenon
Keyboard doesn’t appear and can’t enter passcode.
