Import array inside NSDictionary with Magical Record

I'm using Magical Record to import data returned from a webservice. Following is the json

        }
    ],
    "created_at": "2014-08-08T15:33:24-04:00"
}

I can import top level object with method: 

[MagicalRecord saveWithBlock:^(NSManagedObjectContext *localContext) {
        if ([responseObject isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]]) {
            [Entry importFromArray:responseObject inContext:localContext];
        }
    }];

However, the second level (inside array entry_recording_activities) doesn't import. I've declared entries in data model file. The top level object named "Entry". You can see from the image. enter image description here
The second level object is as follow:
enter image description here The relatedByAttribute and relationships are set also. So how can I import data to many entries (from top level to lower level object)?

Click on the activities property. Under your relatedByAttribute, add 'mappedKeyName', and add the nested path. In this case, entry_recording_activities.

The basic problem is you've defined how to auto-connect the data, but have not told the import library where the data is relative to the start of the import.
