Browser (GrapesJS is executed in browser) should not be able to access arbitrary file from host machine file system. If that was allowed, you would be able to add some JS to a web page and be able to steal files from your users. If you want to achieve this, you must host your files on a http server.

No actually i'm trying to give the link of that html file like url:'../somefolder/test.html' this is how i want to load it into editor instead of pasting html code inside set-component method, is there any chance of doing it like this(urlLoad:"assets/folder/file.html") by using urlLoad method inside storagemanager?
