Testing on master, I cannot use the Numeric field type as input to a data provider with an autofill rule.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a data provider (named countries for this example) using Liferay's get-countries service.
Inputs: Label=countryId Parameter=countryId Type=Number
Outputs: Label=nameCurrentValue Path=nameCurrentValue Type=List

2. Create a form with these 2 fields:
Numeric (int) field: country-id
Select List Field: country-name
Populate the select list with the data provider, specifying nameCurrentValue as the output parameter.

3. Configure an Autofill Rule for the form, like this:
If User belongs to User (or any other condition that evaluates to true)
Autofill country-name from countries
Data Provider's Input=countryId---country-id
Data Provider's Output=nameCurrentValue----country-name

4. Save and Publish the form. Navigate to a page and enter 20 into the country-id field

Expected Result: Afghanistan should be the only selection available in the select list field (country-name).

Actual Result: All countries are available for selection.

Workaround: Make country-id a text field instead. Works as expected.
