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.

Could you post the deploy logs of your frontend nextjs application ?

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
