I don't think Adams had much say in the matter. News traveled slowly in those days and Jackson acted on his own initiative in Florida for the most part.

Why did John Quincy Adams allow general Jackson's invasion into Spanish east Florida?
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.
