Appian recommends using nested relationships ONLY for one-to-one and many-to-one relationships. One-to-many and many-to-many relationships should be flat to avoid performance issues when querying data.

Please have a look at this page:

Depending on the cascade type you can just write the data through the parent.

Thanks for quick reply. We have a Parent-Child relationship which is One to Many(One policy holder can have multiple nominee details)

That depends a bit on the type of relationship. Reference vs. Parent-Child.

And I don't think you need MNI. You can just write multiple items in one go.
