### Parameters

`(object/array)` Maps to create.

Additionally to the [standard map properties](object#map), the method
accepts the following parameters.

|Parameter|[Type](/manual/api/reference_commentary#data_types)|Description|
|---------|---------------------------------------------------|-----------|
|links|array|Map [links](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_link) to be created on the map.|
|selements|array|Map [elements](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_element) to be created on the map.|
|urls|array|Map [URLs](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_url) to be created on the map.|
|users|array|Map [user](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_user) shares to be created on the map.|
|userGroups|array|Map [user group](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_user_group) shares to be created on the map.|
|shapes|array|Map [shapes](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_shapes) to be created on the map.|
|lines|array|Map [lines](/manual/api/reference/map/object#map_lines) to be created on the map.|

::: notetip
To create map links you'll need to set a map element
`selementid` to an arbitrary value and then use this value to reference
this element in the links `selementid1` or `selementid2` properties.
When the element is created, this value will be replaced with the
correct ID generated by Zabbix. [See
example.](create#create_a_host_map)

### Restituisce i valori
