I don’t have it in the library, I accidentally deleted it. Can I retrieve it back from the Apple Support App?

You are saying the App Store app cannot be deleted, but it actually can. I never deleted it, but it is gone. It is gone from my iphone, it is not hidden. When I search for it nothing comes up and not only that, when I go to the app store website and it says to open it in the app from the website, nothing happens. I have reset the phone, still no luck. These are work cells and I have several co-workers who are having the same issue. My personal iphone shows that when you "edit" your home screen, that delete is an option with this icon. Some of the default icons (apps themselves) do not give this option. None of this matters really, all I need to know is how to get it back, since that is the only way to get other applications loaded on these phones.

- If you have find the App Store app, tap & hold on the app, then drag to the Home screen & drop it.

How do I get the App Store back I think I deleted it on accident
It cannot be deleted. Swipe all the way to the left to reveal the App Library and type in "App Store". You will then be able to add it back to one of your Home Screens.
Find your apps in App Library on iPhone - Apple Support
If not there, then check Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Installing App. Make sure this is set to Allow.

It's not possible to accidentally delete App Store. You may have hidden it, swipe down on the middle of your iPhone Home Screen to activate a search box. Type "App Store" in it, it should come up. If no results come up, you may need to do a full factory reset.

Have you done the steps already provided?
- Provide a Screen Shot of your App Library after you enter "App Store" in the search field.
- If not there, then provide a screen shot showing that it is allowed to Install Apps in Screen Time.

Did you swipe all the way to the left to the App Library and put "App Store" in the search field to see if you can put it back on the Home Screen.

The information has already been provided. It cannot be deleted. Review the previous post to determine if Screen Time restrictions are preventing access or if it is in your App Library. Those are the only 2 options.
Have you verified Screen Time settings provided?
Have you used the supplied link to find in the App Library?
