createMap

This operation is no longer current and may be deprecated in the future. We recommend upgrading to the Maps API V2 unless you require Grab data.

• CreateMap is part of a previous Amazon Location Service Maps API (version 1) which has been superseded by a more intuitive, powerful, and complete API (version 2).

• The Maps API version 2 has a simplified interface that can be used without creating or managing map resources.

• If you are using an AWS SDK or the AWS CLI, note that the Maps API version 2 is found under geo-maps or geo_maps, not under location.

• Since Grab is not yet fully supported in Maps API version 2, we recommend you continue using API version 1 when using Grab.

• Start your version 2 API journey with the Maps V2 API Reference or the Developer Guide. Creates a map resource in your Amazon Web Services account, which provides map tiles of different styles sourced from global location data providers.

If your application is tracking or routing assets you use in your business, such as delivery vehicles or employees, you must not use Esri as your geolocation provider. See section 82 of the Amazon Web Services service terms for more details.
