Dynamically add tiles from strings using C#

Hello,

I've placed a grid with 2 tilemaps, one is Ground, and the other is Objects. I'm trying to retrieve data from my server and populate the Objects tilemap. However, I don't see a way to dynamically load tiles by name or ID.

I know there's a tilemap.SetTile(Vector3Int position, Tile tile) function, but where do I actually get the tile object from?
