Save a world

PUT
/spaces/maps/{map}/draft
curl --request PUT \
  --url https://spaces.work.optidata.cloud/api/spaces/maps/a28e5bf3-26b4-4a34-9f98-9a116a2700ca/draft \

Saves the map document, the group areas, or both. Each save increases version. Builders only.

The map document is checked for what a world must have (type, width, height, tilewidth, tileheight, layers); group areas must fit inside the map. Send at least one of data and group_areas.

Path Parameters

Section titled “Path Parameters”
map
required
string

The world’s identifier.

Request Bodyrequired

Section titled “Request Bodyrequired”
Media typeapplication/json
Any of:
object
data
required

A Tiled map in its JSON format (orthogonal, 32×32 tiles). It must carry type, width, height, tilewidth, tileheight and layers. The Spaces client reads a Ground tile layer and the object layers Wall, Chair, Objects, ObjectsOnCollide, GenericObjects, GenericObjectsOnCollide, Computer, Whiteboard, Basement and VendingMachine; the easiest way to get a valid document is to create a world without data and edit the blank one it returns.
