Can't preview an image with 'private' disk when using spatie-laravel-media-library-plugin

Hi, I have field like this 
 SpatieMediaLibraryFileUpload::make('business_license')
                        ->collection('business-license')
                        ->disk('private')
                        ->image()
                        ->visibility('private') 
                        ->label(__('Business License'))
                        ->maxSize(1024),
 SpatieMediaLibraryFileUpload::make('business_license')
                        ->collection('business-license')
                        ->disk('private')
                        ->image()
                        ->visibility('private') 
                        ->label(__('Business License'))
                        ->maxSize(1024),
, Uploading works fine. But I can't preview this image when I view/edit the reocrd. here is the disk in my 'config/filesystems.php': 
'private' => [  //For private files
            'driver' => 'local',
            'root'   => storage_path('app/private'), // Important: Different directory!
            'url' => env('APP_URL').'/private', // It is important to set url, otherwise, error may occur.
            'visibility' => 'private',
        ],
'private' => [  //For private files
            'driver' => 'local',
            'root'   => storage_path('app/private'), // Important: Different directory!
            'url' => env('APP_URL').'/private', // It is important to set url, otherwise, error may occur.
            'visibility' => 'private',
        ],
. On the model, I do have this block 
 $this
            ->addMediaCollection('business-license') // Collection for the business license
            ->useDisk('private')
            ->acceptsMimeTypes(['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/jpg'])
            ->singleFile();  // Enforce that only one file can be in this collection
 $this
            ->addMediaCollection('business-license') // Collection for the business license
            ->useDisk('private')
            ->acceptsMimeTypes(['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/jpg'])
            ->singleFile();  // Enforce that only one file can be in this collection
. I checked the document "One way to store files privately is to configure this in your S3 bucket settings, in which case you should also use visibility('private') to ensure that Filament generates temporary URLs for your files.", but I just use a local 'private' disk. any insights on how to let 'Filament generates temporary URLs ' for my loal private files? thanks

Is your APP_URL is correct? This gets me a lot. For my setup I need the port when running locally via composer run dev: 
APP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000
APP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000

You need to tell your disk how to generate private images and add a controller that serves those images.
