### :bangbang: Default server base path
With Appium 1.x, the server would accept commands by default on `http://localhost:4723/wd/hub`. The
`/wd/hub` base path was a legacy convention from the days of migrating from Selenium 1 to Selenium
2, and is no longer relevant. As such the default base path for the server is now `/`. If you want
to retain the old behaviour, you can set the base path via a command line argument as follows:
```
appium --base-path=/wd/hub
```
You can also set server arguments as [Config file](./config.md) properties.
