The tags appended to your post suggest that you have an iPad Pro 11”.


The iPad Pro 11” does not have a TouchID (fingerprint) sensor - but instead uses FaceID (using its front facing camera) to identify and authenticate its owner. Your iPad Pro, in common with all models of iPad, does support entry of a Passcode.


A passcode must be set-up before you can enable FaceID - or for other models where it is supported, TouchID.


Shutdown of your iPad is triggered from iPad settings:

Settings > General > Shut Down
