    }
}
let server=http.createServer(handler);
server.listen(port,()=>{
    console.log("server is listening on port",`${port}`);

Please use spaces in your code, hard to read otherwise. Also use const instead of let when variable won't change. You forgot to use the parsed urlData.

Try this:

'use strict'

const http = require('http')
const url = require('url')
const port = process.env.PORT || 8086

function handler (req, res) {  
  if (req.url !== '/favicon.ico') {
    const urlData = url.parse(req.url, true)

    console.log(req.query)
    console.log(urlData)
    console.log('Request Method:' + req.method)
    console.log('Request URL:' + req.url)
    console.log('Username:' + urlData.query.user)
    console.log('Password:' + urlData.query.pass)
    res.statusCode = 200
    res.setHeader('content-Type', 'text/plain')
    res.end("I 'm sending data username is " + `${urlData.query.user}` + 'and password is ' + `${urlData.query.pass}`)
  }
}

const server = http.createServer(handler)

server.listen(port, () => {
  console.log('server is listening on port', `${port}`)
})
