Thanks and regards

There are mainly 3 different types of views in Revit : model views, hybrid views and drafting views. In model views you can use 3D model elements (BIM) and some 2d elements (annotations, texts, etc). Hydrid views are model views + some 2D CAD elements (lines, hatches, etc) in it. In drafting views you can use only 2D CAD elements (CAD lines, annotations, texts, etc).

Model views and hybrid views are associative (linked to the 3D model). Drafting views are independent from the 3D model and cannot be linked to any 3d model.

All rebars in Revit are 3D model elements, therefore you cannot add it to any drafting view. In Revit, all sections, elevations and plan views are falling in the Views category (so they are all "views").

You probably created a section of the 3D model. All you have to do is add tags to the rebars, annotations, and view name. All the tags, annotations, text objects you can find them in the Annotate menu.

If you want to create a rebar shape detailing with leg dimensions, that's not yet possible in basic Revit. You can use extensions like Graitec or Sofistik to achieve that goal.

Better to detail reinforcement in detail views and sections. In drafting views, you will need to draw all lines in 2D.

I have created this families for when I need to detail type S3, T1 & T2 Stirrups, rebar with 90 & 180 hooks you turn thing on and off as your like.  Also if you go into Revit 2D component Library Division 3 Concrete/032100-Reinforcing steel you can find other rebar elements. I hope this works for you.
