Redis – Can't deploy FastAPI with Celery on Heroku

I’m working on an application which main task is to scrap text from a LinkedIn profile, process that text and return a dict with the most common words from the profile. Everything worked perfectly on local machine, but problems have occurred when I decide to deploy this on Heroku. It seems out my scraping process take almost 5-7 minutes, so I reached Request Timeout on Heroku. To avoid that, I apply Celery to my project to run this process in background. And now I have an issue to deploy this smoothly on Heroku.

In task.py I import my main script from from app.agents.scraper import Scraper – this class return dict contain to values – word and quantity.

In Heroku I add my Config Vars like:

Do you have any thoughts when I made mistke?
