I'm new to D&D and D&D Beyond in general. I'm sure there is already a thread for this but it would be great if I could redeem a code or key or something to at least get the classes added from a physical book I bought. I kept trying to create an artificer and after reasearching found I had to purchase a specific book...so I did...but I still can't create an online character sheet using that class. I'm someone who learns better with physical books but the app really helps me keep track of everything better character-wise or I'd end up even more lost in notes...literally all I want is to be able to add at least the class since I purchased the book....without having to also buy a digital copy as well...
You can buy the Physical/Digital bundle on DDB. But if you bought the Physical already then you would have to buy the Digital as a separate purchase to use it on DDB.
You do have some options though.
Option 1: Find someone nice that's willing to let you join a campaign with content sharing. That'll give you access to Tasha's for the artificer and you can add it to a character in that content sharing campaign. The r/dndnext subreddit on reddit has weekly content sharing threads where people post links to campaigns where they do that.
Option 2: Homebrew it in the system. This will not work for artificer as you cannot homebrew entire classes. But for subclasses / spells/ feats / etc it can work for the most part. (There are some things that get janky.) But it can help out with other things.

There's no Physical Book codes to add.

This is a signature. It was a simple signature. But it has been upgraded.
