Request Failed with status 404 due to unknown command

Hi guys I am new in here but I like to know more about appium. currently I am using appium (javascript) with webdriverio as framework and when I tried to run I got this error:

Request failed with status 404 due to unknown command: The requested resource could not be found, or a request was received using an HTTP method that is not supported by the mapped resource.

and I know the workaround by input parameter path: “/wd/hub”, but what I like to know more about why do we need to input this path parameter, is there a reason for this? because last month when I tried to run it it’s working fine.

any knowledge or insight is welcome, thank you!
