Despite being logged into the same Apple ID across all devices and doing several restarts, I still don't have this option. This means that I am unable to sync my iMessage history to my new device, which severely inhibits my workflow.
Any tips?

Thank you!
For some reason, the option to "enable messages in iCloud" is not available on my brand new iMac
