Hi Mark,

Upon checking the error, this refer to using to w3c protocol. To give a bit more context, for iOS 16 onwards, please send w3c-compliant capabilities only as Appium itself, is not supporting JSON wire capabilities now. Also, post-session creation also, all the commands should be in w3c compliant only.
