Hi @nguye3hg. I have the same issue on localhost in development since 3.54 map version. Using 3.53 may solve your issue. V3 versions.

E.g.:

useJsApiLoader({ googleMapsApiKey: 'API_KEY', version: '3.53' })

TL;DR I've noticed the same behaviour on one of my projects. In our production everything works fine, but on localhost I see the same issue. This part of the code base wasn't changed for considerable time. In our project, the version of this library is fixed. Thus I believe the issue itself is not caused by this library. I'd watch for the map versions. Currently the latest is 3.54. Let's hope for now in 3.55 everything will get back to normal.

I reviewed the issue today and found the problem. We use miragejs for API mocking and it is interfering with google maps. It's interesting it was working until 3.54 version without any problem.

For the reference if anybody encounter this issue, adding following passthrough into miragejs server solves the problem.

this.passthrough('https://maps.googleapis.com/**')
