    <summary type="html">Hi Experts,Need your help on this. I tried to follow this tutorial: &lt;a href="https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360029134351-Data-Providers"&gt;https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360029134351-Data-Providers&lt;/a&gt; which guide on how to retrieve drop-down list values (list of countries) from Liferay built-in REST service in Liferay forms.However after I entered all the details and saved, i got this error: &amp;#34;URL must not be a local network&amp;#34;.&lt;br /&gt;FYI, I run Liferay 7.2 in my localhost and managed to see the REST service values (&lt;a href="http://localhost:8080/api/jsonws/country/get-countries/"&gt;http://localhost:8080/api/jsonws/country/get-countries/&lt;/a&gt; )  if i opened it in browser. Any ideas what I did wrong? Thanks.</summary>
