For IPad 8th generation........how do I get my fingerprint ID to work? I could not get it to accept my fingerprint when I was setting up the IPad I received on Monday. Now I am at “add a fingerprint” and it will not even bring up the fingerprint for me to tap with my index finger. Please advise.

iPad, iPadOS 14

Read this support article and follow ALL the steps provided:--> If Touch ID isn't working on your iPhone or iPad – Apple Support

If the issue persists, make an appointment and have your iPad inspected at an Apple Store or Authorized Service Provider among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector
