iPad Wifi Payload to a Hidden Network

Hello,

I am creating a new configuration profile to apply a new hidden SSID to student iOS devices (ipad 10th gen) in which we plan on utilizing. The SSID is hidden and not broadcasting, and has been tested with several clients without the profile applied. Clients alone don't have an issue connecting after manual entering the hidden network information.

After creating the wifi payload configuration profile with the correct scope, devices receive the "managed network" payload but it does not show as a selectable wifi name under the wifi network settings on the ipad. Hidden network and Auto Join have been selected within the wifi payload configuration on JAMF's end. Am I missing something? I am not sure why the ssid is not a selectable option on the ipad, but still shows as a managed network when you head to edit the device wifi networks. 

Any help would be appreciated, thank you very much!
