How to access Laravel symbolic link when uploaded to Heroku

Adnan's answer has two issues;

If you use heroku run bash to execute a command, it's only executed in a one-off dyno. So this won't effect the live dyno.
The php artisan storage:link command generates a symlink with an absolute path. So when you'd run this during build, it'd map the absolute path of a temp build directory, instead of the final app's directory on the dyno.

I used a simple relative symlink to link both directories and add it to your git repository:

cd public/ && ln -s ../storage/app/public storage && cd ..

if you are using Heroku for your deployment you can try

heroku run bashphp artisan storage:link

heroku run /app/php/bin/php /app/www/artisan storage:link

you can use an absolute path or relative path to run binaries

Hope this helps
