To get the total open interest, use the endpoint GET /futures/data/openInterestHist

for share of volumes in short and long positions, you can use GET /futures/data/topLongShortAccountRatio and GET /futures/data/topLongShortPositionRatio

funding rates for short and long positions for each asset using GET /dapi/v1/fundingInfo

For a detailed exploration of Binance Futures API, refer to (Binance API Documentation)

I have got some additional informtion, so sharing with you and it may help:
