items: [{
a: 'London',
b: '1500',
nested: {
a: 'John doe',
b: '28',
c: 'UK',
}
}]
}
Instructions:
[
['items[].a', 'items[].city'],
['items[].b', 'items[].price'],
['items[].nested', 'items[].user']
],
[
['items[].user.a', 'items[].user.name'],
['items[].user.b', 'items[].user.age'],
['items[].user.c', 'items[].country'],

{
"items": [{
