Hello.
It sounds like you want to place an Instagram badge on your page. There are two different methods you can follow.
You can use code from your Instagram profile by following the directions at https://en.support.wordpress.com/instagram/instagram-badge/ and creating a text widget.
You can also use the social media icons widget and enter your username to have the Instagram (or any other social media sites available in the widget) icon show on your page.
Hope this helps, if it is not what you were looking for, please clarify.
Thanks.

I went to settings, then sharing, add new service…it request service name (Instagram)..sharing url (I assume that would be my IG url..I’m stuck where it request URL icon

Im clueless about coding…it asked for my IG url…ok I know that then it ask for aurl 16×16 pxl of the IGicon

The sharing section in settings you are looking at is for publishing content from your site to Instagram.
For simplicity, the easiest way to add the Instagram icon to your page is the social media widget. You can go Appearance -> Widgets. Find the Social Media Icons widget and add it. Then you just need to add your username for Instagram and when a reader clicks the icon, they will be taken to your Instagram profile.

I don’t believe the connection between Instagram and WordPress.com goes in that direction.
