Hi!
I'm trying to connect a front end app with a server using private networking but I don´t know whats the port due there is no variable PORT given by you (Railway).
Here's other thread where "you give the solution" but given link does not work
https://help.railway.com/questions/how-do-i-use-private-networking-with-rai-65fa14c1
Could you help me with this?

Is this a client side rendered frontend app?

Hi!
No, it is a SSR app. To be more specific is a sveltekit app. I need to know the port of my api server to connect them, but I don’t know what this is.

The port is whatever your app is listening on, but ideally this would be $PORT (8080)
Check out this docs section for how to do this following best practices -

I think I get it. My API can receive a PORT variable which is set by Railway on deployment. Is this PORT I need for private networking? Is there an environment variable to fetch this?
