Dear Mauro,
You need to replace the {z}/{x}/{y} with coordinates of a tile on the
map, for example 0/0/0:
https://api.gbif.org/v2/map/occurrence/density/0/0/0@1x.png?taxonKey=212&bin=hex&hexPerTile=30&style=classic-noborder.poly
Depending what software or libraries you are using (if any), you can
probably find further information by searching for "tile maps" or
"slippy maps". Open Street Map have examples for calculating the
required tile(s) for a given location:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Slippy_map_tilenames
Best,
Matt Blissett
