Sorry for the delay with the answer!

Sure, you can get the access to the KCIDB database.

However, we don't have APIs, just the direct access to PostgreSQL, which keeps
six months of data. See the attached (abbreviated) schema dump. It largely
mirrors the JSON I/O schema, which you can see here:

https://github.com/kernelci/kcidb-io/blob/main/kcidb_io/schema/v04_03.py

Here's some more human-oriented introductory docs:

https://kernelci.org/docs/kcidb/submitter_guide/

Note, that at the moment we have no way to query for "Qualcomm boards", but we
have a schema change proposal being discussed to address that.

Also, when fetching your data you will need to be considerate of traffic and load.

You can explore the data on the dashboard (to be improved soon):
https://kcidb.kernelci.org/

If none of the above stops you, I can give you credentials and permissions for
querying.
