 * Hello,
   The Google Chrome Console started to show the following message when I
   load a page including a map: “Google Maps JavaScript API has been loaded directly
   without loading=async. This can result in suboptimal performance. For best-practice
   loading patterns please see [https://goo.gle/js-api-loading&#8221](https://goo.gle/js-api-loading&#8221);
 * Is there any way to solve this warning?
 * Thanks for your help!
 * Best
 * Jean-Christophe

 * We don’t use the Google Maps JavaScript API. That message might be from something
   else.
 * We use Maps Embed API which uses an iframe to load the map and it already loads
   anysncronously.
