[Compendium][5e] Hellish Rebuke does not exist

When going to add the Evocation Hellish Rebuke to my character sheet (5e) I found the source in the in game Compendium links to <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/29/players-handbook/" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/29/players-handbook/</a> instead. Even when googling the spell in roll20 it redirects to that page.&nbsp; Just searching the Compendium in game will show the spell, but it cannot be dragged into a character sheet. The spell is also missing from roll20's spell list. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Index%3ASpells" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Index%3ASpells</a> Not a big deal since I can manually add it, but figured it would be good to bring up.
You will only have access to spells from Players Handbook if creator of game owns the Roll20 version and is sharing it (I believe this way works).&nbsp; Otherwise you are restricted to what WotC provided in OGL-SRD.
hellish rebuke is a spell present only in Players Handbook and not on official SRD so for licensing reasons roll20 cant put it on the free compendium.

Hellish Rebuke is in the official SRD , and should be available in the Compendium. I'll alert the authorities.

In general, anything that is granted by an SRD class or race should be detailed in the SRD, Ex. Eldritch Blast was accidentally omitted by WotC in early copies of the SRD, but added when it was realized it's a core spell for warlocks.
All good to know, was not aware of the strange licensing going on. That said also good to know the spell should be in the Compendium as well. Shame I can't just prove I own the IRL player handbook to gain access, but I can respect why the choice was made. Thanks for the help!
I have passed this on to the production team! :)
