How to embed inline image in email using Laravel 5.8 - php

Question

I'm trying to embed a logo as an image in email.
When i use the <img src="{{ $message->embed($pathToImage) }}"> function i get an error
Unable to open file for reading [https://roadshow.test/storage/img/Email/Image_1_3a24d02162cb4c38a9c97009d527d53c.png]
The Email builder look like this:
return $this->subject("Event - {$subjectDate}")
->view('emails.index')
->with(['pathToImage' => url('/storage/img/Email/Image_1_3a24d02162cb4c38a9c97009d527d53c.png')]);
If i use the url('....') function in my View, the picture is loading and I can see it without any problems.
I have also tried to get the image with the Laravel public_path('/img/Email/Image_1_3a24d02162cb4c38a9c97009d527d53c.png') helper. But this is not working altought i linked the storage with public folder with the php artisan command.
my filesystem config:
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app'),
],
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
and I don't use a email markdown. The enviroment is set up on homestead. All my files are in "/home/vagrant/code/roadshow/storage/img/Email/Image_1_3a24d02162cb4c38a9c97009d527d53c.png" folder uploaded.
I'm running homestead on Windows 10 and this is the path in Windows

In your email builder, the name of the attribute hint for a path not a link.
Try it with the direct path, since you are embedding the image to your mail body.
return $this->subject("Event - {$subjectDate}")
->view('emails.index')
->with(['pathToImage' => storage_path('app/public/img/Email/Image_1_3a24d02162cb4c38a9c97009d527d53c.png')]);
