> ⚠️ This error is not relevant in Next.js versions 12.1.6 or later. Please refer to the updated [error message](/docs/messages/no-before-interactive-script-outside-document).
You should not use the `next/script` component in `pages/_document.js` in Next.js versions prior to 12.1.6. That's because the `pages/_document.js` page only runs on the server and `next/script` has client-side functionality to ensure loading order.
