Nagios Core's database (which is less "database" and more ORM) is in-memory and inaccessible. Nagios XI uses a MariaDB database.

That said, if you want to programatically pull a specific piece of information out of Nagios Core, the JSON CGIs exist:
https://labs.nagios.com/2014/06/19/expl ... -7-part-1/

From that documentation, assuming you are using the latest version of Nagios Core, you can skip to the "To get started using the CGIs" section.

Or, if you want to manually submit checks to Nagios Core, passive checks are a good option for this.

Thank you. when i open the json query generator page, the Send Query is disabled. Could you please help me to resolve this

Please refer to the documentation I have provided:
https://labs.nagios.com/2014/06/19/expl ... -7-part-1/

You'll need to select the relevant CGI for the information you're trying to access. Here's an example of generating a query for the status of host CENESPROD00:

Notice how I have selected the "Status JSON CGI".
