Hi, in one of my campaigns I am playing a Rogue with the Arcane Trickster Archetype. I am trying to add a cantrip to my character which I should be able to add, which is from the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide and is called Booming Blade. I do not personally own the content, but the DM of the campaign does and has sharing enabled, as well as another campaign I am in also has that content shared. When I try to look for the spell in the add spells field box, the spell does not appear. My DM even tried adding the spell to my spells himself through his access, which didn't work.
I tried various searches to see if this is even a bug, or if I need to buy the content, but I was unable to answer my question.
You are certain you're adding it to a character that is in one of the campaigns with content sharing on? It's not possible to do it outside of those campaigns if you don't own the content.
If the character is in a campaign then ask the person who is sharing the content to turn sharing off and on again. I know how that sounds but it forces DNDBeyond to update the shared content list.
It hasn't got anything to do with you already having 3 cantrips has it? Arcane tricksters get Mage hand and two other cantrips - and they don't get a 4th until level 10 - and you have 3. Or did you take something else because you couldn't add Booming Blade?
Thank you for your report! I would recommend that the DM (or whichever user inside the campaign who has purchased the SCAG content) reach out to our Support team, who have the tools to take a closer look.

Yes, the campaign has sharing on. DM has switched off and back on twice now in fact. Still not able to add the spell to my character.

Link the character then and a mod should be able to see what's wrong - even if the character is set to private.

Took something else because I couldn't take it - but I have tried not having cantrips full etc. It should still show up in the add spell list anyway.
