How to get the BUY-SELL volume of a options contract

For a given options contract for eg. NIFTY 05JUNE 24600 PE, at a 1M timeframe, I would like to know how much was the BUY volume, SELL volume. Currently, what I see is the total volume for that period.

I am a newbie - what is such a feed called ? level 2 data ?

  1. Is this data available in zerodha websockets API ? Or can I somehow calculate it ?
  2. Does platform like trading view have this data and can it be accessed via pinescript in my strategy
  3. Does anyone know any platform that provides such data

Yes, volume data is available in Kite connect API. You may refer to this link for more details.

A market data feed is a continuous stream of real-time trading information (prices, volumes, bids, asks, etc.) delivered from exchanges or data vendors to subscribers. This feed can include Level 1 (best bid/ask), Level 2 (market depth), Level 3 (full order book), or tick-by-tick data, depending on the subscription

Level 2 data specifically refers to real-time order-book information showing multiple bid and ask price levels and associated quantities, revealing market depth beyond the top-of-book. Read more.
