Check under the Management tab in Jamf and look for the Activation Lock Bypass Code. You should be able to use that, after restoring the computer, to bypass the Activation Lock and activate the computer.

r/macsysadmin on Reddit: Remove activation lock with MDM?
March 21, 2024 -
Is it possible to remove activation lock from a device using the MDM? In this case, the MDM is Jamf. The device was configured using “Find My” with a personal iCloud account and the device key in Jamf doesn’t appear to be working. Also, how could I prevent users from enabling “Find My” with a personal account moving forward?
From what I am seeing, I have to go to Apple with proof of purchase, but wanted to confirm before doing so.

r/macsysadmin on Reddit: Jamf and Activation Lock on MacOS
October 5, 2021 -
Hi guys,
i'm new to JAMF and i'm trying to understand how Activation Lock works on macs.
If i understood correctly Activation Lock is set every time an user log to its icloud account. This is why JAMF create an activation lock bypass code.
Now:
- how do i know that this code is updated and ready to use?
- is it better to turn on the "Prevent user from enabling Activation Lock" option?
- do you have any suggestions or tips to avoid any issue when i will need to clear or reset a mac?
Thanks!

We’re currently using Jamf School for iPads, division wide M1 MacBooks and a few intel Devices. I usually only see activation locks when someone uses a personal AppleID. However, activation lock bypass codes are per device and don’t need to be updated. As long as there is a code under the device details, you’re good to go. Turning off activation lock is preference, as a Jamf admin you can get past it and it becomes a mild inconvenience. If you have M1 Macs wiping a device requires you to re-partition the drive and re-install the OS. That is until Monterey comes out and adds in the Erase all Content and Data similar to the iPad version. This will be the thing to use as it doesn’t require an OS reinstall but still wipes all user data and settings.

in addition to the prevent user from enabling restriction, I've played with the checkbox to prevent activation lock in the prestage enrollment also - seems in the GUI a user can turn FMM on but in system information, general, activation lock stays 'disabled'.
