I am trying to customize the Category Archive Templates using Toolset. I cannot see the standard block elements like "Sections" which need to be added to this page while other pages show this block? What needs to be done?

This is the main reason why I purchased Toolset. Kindly look into this and suggest ASAP.

Hello,

Please follow our document to setup Toolset WordPress Archive, and customize it as what you want:
https://toolset.com/course-lesson/creating-a-custom-archive-page/

And there isn't built-in "Section" block within WordPress Blocks editor or Toolset Blocks plugin, but there is "Container" block within Toolset Blocks plugin, you can follow our document to setup and style the "Container" block:

We are using custom Gutenberg "Section" Block which is available across all Gutenberg templates / post types but is not available on Archive Templates? Why is it so?

More specifically "Section" is available in the Canvas Plugin which can be found here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/canvas/

Thanks for the details, I have tried the Canvas Plugin, with below steps:
1) Create a Toolset WordPress Archive, I don't find "Section" block available
So it does not compatible with Toolset Blocks plugin, you can add a feature request for it:
https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/
Our developers will evaluate it.

2) Then I have checked the "Section" block from Canvas Plugin, it provide some custom style/format, which are also available within Toolset Container block, see my screenshot: Container-block.JPG
So currently, I suggest you try with Toolset Container block instead of "Section" block:
