I just created an Artificer and the class is given the following tools proficiency.
Tools: Thieves' tools, tinker's tools, one type of artisan's tools of your choice (Smithy Tools).
I noticed on the D&D Beyond character sheet that only the Thieves' Tools are the tool listed in the equipment section. My question is if you are proficient in a tool should you or do you automatically get those tools for your characters or do you have to buy these tools that are not given? I'm trying to see if there is a rule I'm missing or if this is just a Beyond 'functionality'.

I do not have any book with the Artificer, however, the general approach in 5e is, that you do not get the tools automatically togehther with the proficiency. In most cases, the class items or background equipment cover this. But, there are instances, where you have the proficiency and need to buy the tools on top.

Great! Thank you both.
