The behaviour described in this issue is as intended as we've restricted to create application links for localhost by default for security consideration. If you do want to create application links for localhost, you can add applinks.allow.all.hosts and set as true in confluence-install-path/bin/setenv.sh and then restart server.

Issue Summary
Application link creation failed in Confluence 7.19.11 with the following error, "URL must not point to localhost or restricted IPs."
This is reproducible on Data Center: yes
Steps to Reproduce
- Setup the Confluence 7.19.11
- Setup the Crowd 4.3.2 (any Version)
- Both applications are running on the same server (localhost)
- Create an Application link for Crowd to connect to Confluence,
- Reciprocal link creation is failing on Confluence side.
- An interesting fact is Issue was observed only with Confluence 7.19.11
Expected Results
Reciprocal link should be successfully created.
Actual Results
Failed to create Application link between Confluence And Crowd or Confluence and Jira.
Workaround
Upgrade to latest Confluence LTS 7.19.12, where issue is not observed.
