Hey Folks,
As mentioned in the documentation, it's recommended to stick to the ports railway sets on your services, coolio.
When I want to make a request to a service on the internal network however, how can I know the port that Railway has assigned it?
Looking at: https://docs.railway.app/guides/private-networking#use-internal-hostname-and-port
For example, my project: https://github.com/ciaranevans/archivum28
Has a frontend and backend. I know that the internal hostname of my backend is backend.railway.internal - But the port is randomly assigned at runtime, so how would my frontend know what the port is?
Is this a case where I then have to move to explicitly setting ports my services are exposed on?

Also following on from this, the dashboard says:
backend.railway.internal

You can also simply call me
backend
.How would that look in a fetch request?
