Private Network Fails

I have 4 services the fourth one is nginx reverse-proxy. Two services are dockerized, the other service is straight nodejs. Now the NodeJs works well, I call the service name with a port number, but calling the other two dockerized fail. I tried entering the whole DNS

api.railway.internal

api.railway.internal

but it doesn't work. What should I do? I am using NGINX, so here is basic config I want to achieve

upstream api_service {
    server api.railway.internal:5000 fail_timeout=120;
}

upstream api_service {
    server api.railway.internal:5000 fail_timeout=120;
}

Then I can use it in a location block

location /api {
    proxy_pass http://api_service
}

location /api {
    proxy_pass http://api_service
}

nginx is hard to do correctly with the private network, instead I recommend using caddy, here's a template that likely does what you want - https://railway.app/template/7uDSyj

Alright thanks thanks bro When sending requests to this

api.example.com/v1

api.example.com/v1

I want this to proxy to api.railway.internal:3000/api/v1

api.example.com/v1/groove

api.example.com/v1/groove
