the work around is to edit component json file manually. :slightly_smiling_face:
admin GUI can display, but not able to edit.

$ cat footer.json
{
  "collectionName": "components_global_footers",
  "info": {
    "displayName": "Footer",
    "icon": "arrow-down",
    "description": ""
  },
  "options": {},
  "attributes": {
    "footerColumns": {
      "type": "component",
      "repeatable": true,
      "component": "shared.footer-columns"
    },
    "socialNetworks": {
      "type": "component",
      "repeatable": true,
      "component": "shared.social-network"
    },
    "button": {
      "type": "component",
      "repeatable": false,
      "component": "shared.button"
    },
    "label": {
      "type": "string"
