Can't setup 2FA on Instagram
Instagram supports 2FA but does NOT support enabling it via web browser:
If I can't get a QR code, I'm not sure how I'm going to add it to 1Password. The instagram app allows you to "Set Up Manually" which produces a random key string to enter into your authenticator app - but I don't see a way to manually enter a key string in 1Password.
Is there a way to make 2FA work with Instagram?

AHA! I figured it out. Just have to manually create a "one time password" field and add the key in the "secret" field there:

Hi @IPv6Freely
Please edit your existing Login item for Instagram in 1Password for iOS and tap on the "Add new one-time password" option. In the field labeled "Secret" please paste the code Instagram gives you. If they are using the TOTP standard for 2FA, that should work. :)
I hope that helps. Should you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to ask.
