Nginx rewrite rule: Add subfolder to URI if not there

Hello I'm trying to write a Nginx rewrite rule that adds a subdirectory to my URL if it's missing. For example, I need http://example.com to be re-written (and redirected) to http://example.com/legacy-app. Can't seem to find the proper example to do this.

We ended up using this:

rewrite ^/$ /legacy-app/ last;

You can use a rewrite directive, but an exact match location block is most efficient:

location = / {
    return 301 /legacy-app;
}
