Hello Mlinhares18.
If I'm understanding correctly, you are being prompted to sign in whenever you open the iMessage app on the iPad. I will be glad to help. Let's try the steps below to see if it helps from our article:
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime
Cheers.Check your device settings
- Make sure that you’re connected to a cellular data or Wi-Fi network. If you're using an iPhone, you need SMS messaging to activate your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. Depending on your carrier, you might be charged for this SMS.
- Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and make sure that your time zone is set correctly.
Turn off and restart iMessage
- Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.
- Restart your device.
- Turn iMessage and back on.
