He did not really allow it. Jackson acted on his own for the most part. Communication was slow in those days. Jackson was not under command the of Adams who was Secretary of State. Jackson was reprimanded for creating an international flap by imprisoning the Spanish governor. The invasion put the US in a very strong position for negotiated the Adams-Onis Treaty which ceded Florida to the US and alleviated the problem of Indian raids out of Florida.
