aws amplify: calling a 3rd party api within a endpoint handler blocks without any return

Question

i am new to aws amplify and want to implement some backend logic to call 3rd party apis within a endpoint handler. my calls to 3rd party apis always get blocked.

to test this issue, i wrote the a nextjs 14.1.4 test app. i wrote the simplest handler within "pages/api/test.js" endpoint with a call to a 3rd party api "google.com". the code is shown as below:

// write code for a most simple get endpoint that returns "Hello Amplify"
export default async (req, res) => {
    res.status(200).json({ text: 'Hello Amplify' })

    console.log(
        "Making outbound api calls to https://www.google.com ..."
    );
    const response = await fetch("https://www.google.com/");
    const data = await response.text();
    console.log("Data from the simpliest api call: ", data);
}

when i deploy it on aws amplify and call the endpoint from chrome browser, the call to google api blocks without any return. the amplify logs is listed below:
