Sharing folders to instagram users

Before today I was able to share a link directly to an Instagram user. Now I'm getting this link for editing and link for viewing and not able to share. How do I fix it?

Hey RD photos, if you choose, say, the "link for viewing" option, does it not allow you to share it with other apps like Messenger or Instagram?

 

If not, what happens after you choose an option?

    Nothing happens if I choose either one. It just stays on that screen and unable to share

      Hey RD photos, sorry to jump in here, but have you tried clearing the app's and/or your browser's cache since you first noticed this?
