I am using Advanced Custom Fields to make a property listing post and I’m trying to load in google maps in one of the fields. I am using the Code Snippets plugin to insert the google maps shortcode/API Key. But I keep getting the attached error message in the back end.
Does anyone know what could be the issue?
Thank you!

It’s telling you to check the Console… have you done that?
Are all the required Google APIs enabled? The Google Maps field requires the following APIs; Maps JavaScript API, Geocoding API and Places API.
If everything is setup correctly, it’s possible that a little patience could do the trick. I’ve had similar issues before, where it simply took a while for the APIs to work. As mentioned already, I’d also check your console.
I don’t know if this is related, but have you updated ACF plugin lately? I’ve held off until I assess consequences of a warning that upcoming versions will escape unsafe HTML.
Most probably you didn’t whitelist your domain. Check the console. What does it say
