Does the Archetype Designer support a local HAPI FHIR server ( FHIR Server Base URL: [http://localhost:8080/fhir](http://localhost:8080/fhir))? Such a feature would be likely meaningless for production and other simliar scenarios.
Thanks.

When setting [HAPI Test Server (R4 FHIR)](https://hapi.fhir.org/baseR4) as a Terminology Server for the Archetype Designer, it would also show the same Warning message (_No content to map due to end-of-input at [Suorce: (String)“”; line: 1, column: 0]_) on the Form tab although the server is _reachable and respond as expected_.
Sorry, I couldn’t snapshot such a hint ( when hovering over the WARNING icon) on the computer and I had to take a photo.

Hi Lin,
AD can access only FHIR TS server(s) reachable through internet.

Hi Lin,
I’ve just configured the HAPI server and it worked, but response is at times super slow (\>30s).

Ah, interesting. Thanks, @borut.fabjan.
I’ll try the configuration of the HAPI FHIR test server again.

The list of available ValueSets on the [HAPI FHIR test server](http://hapi.fhir.org/baseR4) can be loaded on the pop-up dialog _Add binding for terminology_:
But the loading process is apparently slow indeed.
It doesn’t seem to be able to load or parse the contents of a given ValueSet in its entirety. Not very stable/reliable.
Therefore, the dropdown list of the tab _Form_ couldn’t be populated (i.e., no options):
Both the latter two issues above might be due to the **slow** loading process.
**Note** :
- ValueSet for testing: [ValueSet - Cigarette Smoking Before and During Pregnancy](https://hapi.fhir.org/baseR4/ValueSet/38843029?_format=html/json)
Core Content of the ValueSet:
```auto
...
"compose": {
"include": [ {
"system": "http://loinc.org",
"concept": [ {
"code": "64794-1",
"display": "In the 3 months before you got pregnant, how many cigarettes did you smoke on an average day [PhenX]"
}, {
"code": "87298-6",
"display": "Cigarettes smoked per day by Mother--1st trimester"
}, {
"code": "87299-4",
"display": "Cigarettes smoked per day by Mother--2nd trimester"
}, {
"code": "64795-8",
"display": "In the last 3 months of your pregnancy, how many cigarettes did you smoke on an average day [PhenX]"
} ]
} ]
}
```

When trying another very simple ValueSet (totally irrelevant but just for testing) and it worked perfectly.
