You would need to use document.querySelectorAll to get all matching elements. document.querySelector returns only the first matching element, or null if there is none.

function SI_MoveTasks() {
    var getSelected = document.querySelectorAll('[data-attr~="sel"]');
    console.log(getSelected);
    var selectedNums = '(';
    for(var i=0; i< getSelected.length; i++) {
        if (selectedNums !== '(') {
          selectedNums += ',';
        }
      selectedNums += getSelected[i].dataset.num;
    }
    selectedNums += ')';
    alert(selectedNums);
}
SI_MoveTasks();

Thats a working code, jsFiddle is: https://jsfiddle.net/3kjye452/

DEMO -> http://jsfiddle.net/0d54ethw/

Use querySelectorAll instead of querySelector since the latter only selects the first element as opposed to all of them.

Then use for loop as shown below

var getSelected = document.querySelectorAll('[data-attr~="sel"]');
var selectedNums = [];
for (var i = 0; i < getSelected.length; i++) {
    selectedNums.push(getSelected[i].dataset.num);
}

alert(selectedNums.join(','));
