# Create Overwatch Map

`POST /api/v3/content/maps`

Create a new Overwatch map from a mixed-multipart request (name + required banner). Idempotent: re-posting an existing name returns 201 with `inserted: false` and overwrites the banner at the same stripped key (replace-banner). Requires the `content:admin` scope.

## Response `201`

Document created, URL follows

- MapCreateResponse
  - `name` string, required
  - `inserted` boolean, required

## Other responses

- `400` — Bad request syntax or unsupported method
