Adding parameters of Api in HTTP Request Node

You are clearly new to node-red so I will include some extra info for you at the end but first, your issues...

You cannot evaluate strings in a field...

You can however use mustache syntax as is detailed in the built in help...

e.g...
http://192.168.1.9:1301/api/OmronTagData/OmronTagdata?TagID={{TagID}}&TagValue="{{TagValue}}"&dateTime={{dateTime}}

NOTE for this :point_up_2: to work, you would need to set msg.TagID, msg.TagValue and msg.dateTime in the msg that goes to the HTTP-Request node

your current flow will cause the HTTP-Request to be executed twice

Canned test / help for those new to node-red...

I recommend watching this playlist: Node-RED Essentials. The videos are done by the developers of node-red. They're nice & short and to the point. You will understand a whole lot more in about 1 hour. A small investment for a lot of gain.

See this article in the cookbook for an example of how to join messages into one object.

There’s a great page in the docs (Working with messages : Node-RED) that will explain how to use the debug panel to find the right path to any data item.

Pay particular attention to the part about the buttons that appear under your mouse pointer when you over hover a debug message property in the sidebar.

In order to make code readable and usable it is necessary to surround your code with three backticks (also known as a left quote or backquote ```)

```
