how to show image from /storage/app/public in lumen?

Question

I got response from API with JSON format have contents filename, created time, user_id, and URL. So I want to show the image from response in frontend by put the URL in <img src={props.generated} alt="image"/> . Nothing was wrong in my frontend code, but the image was not shown.

here my image URL from response

http://localhost:8000/storage/public/user_3/1594265090.jpeg

and when I access URL, here the response in browser

The requested resource /storage/public/user_3/1594265090.jpeg was not found on this server.

Here my code

        $response = $this->client->request('POST', 'API', $data);

        $image = $response->getBody()->getContents();
        $filePath = 'public/' . $this->getUserDir();
        $fileName = time().'.jpeg';         

        if ($result = Storage::put($filePath . '/' . $fileName, $image)) {
                $generated =  $model::create([
                    'name' => $fileName,
                    'file_path' => $filePath,
                    'type' => 'motif',
                    'customer_id' => Auth::id()
                ]);

                return response($generated);

Image put in /storage/app/public , I'm sure it happens because the location of directory. I'm already trying to execute command mklink /D "./storage/app/public" "./public/storage" and I got response Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

thankyou for your suggestion in this question. It was already solved.

I'm using ln -rs./storage/app/public./public/storage . But this command is Linux, so I'm using git bash in my project directory and execute this command.

The result is solved, and I can access the image.
