Unable to connect via private network despite correct config - ExpressJS, NextJS

Hello, I am working on deploying my full stack application in a Railway Project. I have successfully connected my backend to the DB and I can test it with the public URL. Now I was trying to connect my frontend to my backend in a similar way to how I connected the DB. Here are the ports of my applications, and the code config I made to set them up + the variable bindings.

Backend

The PORT env variable is also set to 3000.

Basically I think I did everything correctly, according to the docs? This is how I bound the env variable to link the frontend to backend

At this point I am genuinely stuck, and I am unsure where else to check for issues, since the railway-provided logs aren't helping me that much.

When connecting via the public URL, frontend works just fine, so there are no code issues.

The solution here helped: https://station.railway.com/questions/next-js-mongo-db-private-url-on-railway-efbc4721

It would be really helpful if the docs actually contained this information
