1. what version of Node-RED and node.js are you running? (You can find this in the NR startup log)
2. please export your flow and paste it to a response.

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 `````)

````auto
``` 
   code goes here 
```

````

You can edit and correct your post by clicking the pencil ✏ icon.

Your problem is that every time you refresh the page, the flow starts from the `http-in` node and then goes to the 'function 4' node and that sets msg.payload to a value and sends it to the `template` then to the `http response` node.

Take a look at his [Include data captured in another flow : Node-RED](https://cookbook.nodered.org/http/include-data-from-another-flow) and see if it helps.

If you want vue to work, then you will need to serve all of the necessary files via 1 or more endpoints. If you dont know which files or where to start looking then you may need to learn more about serving web pages and how to use your browsers devtools to understand what is happening.

In the meantime, you may be better suited to using [uibuilder](https://flows.nodered.org/search?term=uibuilder) - it will do the majority of heavy lifting so you can begin building a vue app.
