Chainlink Functions uses a decentralized network of node operators, all of whom connect their oracles to public blockchains using their own choice of RPC provider (ie, Geth client), in order to maximize decentralization. Functions oracles cannot connect to your locally-run blockchain environment.

What goal are you trying to to accomplish? If you're just looking to write some basic test dara to a private blockchain network using Chainlink, I'd recommend running your own Chainlink node, pointing it to your local Geth network's RPC URL within the Chainlink node's EVM settings, and using Chainlink's Any API functionality (also called Direct Requests or Basic Requests) to make your request.

Best of luck, and I hope that helps!

Angela - the support networks indicate what (public) networks are supported [1]. There are several public chains supported -- not just Mumbai. Can you please drop a link to where it says only Mumbai?

Also, not clear if by Geth Client you're using that as a client to access a public chain (as Derek indicated)? Or do you mean locally running blockchain network (you say "local geth network"). If it's the latter, then that is "disconnected" from public chains and so cannot interact with Chainlink Oracle Nodes as your chain is running only on your machine.
