What happens if you open your browser and enter `http://192.168.1.100:10695/odata/API_Cardholders`?

Well if the url returns a 401 error in the browser then it is not surprising that is what node-red returns when you try to open it there. I notice that you are not providing any authorisation information in the flow you posted. I would have expected the API to require authorisation.

have you added any authorization headers when you are making the request with Postman ?

@UnborN No I just import this two files only. I have not did any authorization headers in Postman.

only ? 😇  
so apparently whoever send you those files that you imported in Postman had already setup all the critical elements to make the request to the API ?!

check under Authorization and headers to see how Postman is doing the request and  
replicate that in Node-red.
