.setThumbnail link not working.

I would like to use a local file as embed thumbnail, that is served by node-js express that is running alongside my bot. I generate the link properly, it works fine when checked in a web browser, yet it does not appear on discord.

Embed code:

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
      .setTitle('🔧 Beállítások')
      .setDescription('A legördülő menü segítségével válassz beállítási kategóriát!')
      .setColor(0x0000FF)
      // .setThumbnail(getRandomElement(settingsThumbnails))
      .setThumbnail(`${process.env.WEBREDIRECT}/resources/${getRandomElement(settingsThumbnails)}`)
      .setFooter({ text: `${interaction.client.user.username} by Farleena`, iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true })}` });

    const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
      .addComponents([settingsPageSelector]);

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
      .setTitle('🔧 Beállítások')
      .setDescription('A legördülő menü segítségével válassz beállítási kategóriát!')
      .setColor(0x0000FF)
      // .setThumbnail(getRandomElement(settingsThumbnails))
      .setThumbnail(`${process.env.WEBREDIRECT}/resources/${getRandomElement(settingsThumbnails)}`)
      .setFooter({ text: `${interaction.client.user.username} by Farleena`, iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true })}` });

    const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
      .addComponents([settingsPageSelector]);

WEBREDIRECT is defined in .env WEBREDIRECT=https://kurumi.farleena.cc getRandomElement chooses from these: "settingsThumbnails": ["settingsThumbnails/mehnera-settings-1.png", "settingsThumbnails/mehnera-settings-2.png"], so an example complete link looks like this: https://kurumi.farleena.cc/resources/settingsThumbnails/mehnera-settings-2.png Yet as thumbnail it does not appear (the link might not always be available for you to check, the express runs along the bot and only alive when I am debugging the bot) actually, if I put a fixed, completed link in there, it also does not work.. maybe I serve the file wrong?

app.get('/resources/:subdirname/:filename', (request, response) => {
    return response.sendFile(request.params.filename, { root: path.join(path.resolve(__dirname, '..'), 'resources/pics', request.params.subdirname) });
  });

app.get('/resources/:subdirname/:filename', (request, response) => {
    return response.sendFile(request.params.filename, { root: path.join(path.resolve(__dirname, '..'), 'resources/pics', request.params.subdirname) });
  });
