Hi Guys,
I am using grapesjs-blocks-bootstrap4 and I check how they component it's looks fine.
But when you select block like container it targets the class instead of Unique ID.
I was able to setup random ID using this model.set('attributes', { id: randomID() }); but still when you select the block it targets the class instead of ID
