That describes how to use insider trading API on financialmodelingprep.com.

GET YOUR APIKEY IN SECOND ON https://site.financialmodelingprep.com/developer

The federal securities laws require certain individuals (such as officers, directors, and those that hold more than 10% of any class of a company’s securities, together we’ll call, “insiders”) to report purchases, sales, and holdings of their company’s securities by filing Forms 3, 4, and 5.
Each item returned from the endpoint also has a price field, which indicates what price this transaction was filed at. The price can be 0 if the company gave them stocks or options.
