You get the 404 error doing what, exactly?
Anyway please be aware that SuiteCRM on nginx can work but is unsupported, so it requires a few changes to the codebase (there are other posts on the forum with details)

To make the API work in Nginx add this to your config:

        location ~ /Api/ {
                index   index.php;
                try_files $uri @rewrite_api;

                location ~ \.php {
                        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
                        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
                }
        }

        location @rewrite_api {
                rewrite ^/Api/(.*)?$    /Api/index.php/$1       last;
        }

It should be placed in your site configuration on your nginx webserver. /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/…

Alternatively, you may be able to use the direct URLS to the API (rather than the ‘modified nice looking ones’) as outlined in:

This means that you can avoid the shortened https://mysite.com/Api/access_token and instead use the full path https://mysite.com/Api/index.php/access_token

Similarly for using the V8 Api, replace https://mysite.com/Api/V8/module and instead use the full path https://mysite.com/Api/index.php/V8/module
