When setting with a
Map the
smartionaryDescriptions is a special key that
tells the method to associate those descriptions with the matching key in the
outer layer (non-matching keys are ignored).
smartionaryDescription and
entryDescription are optional parameters.
Be mindful of use-cases where it may only be necessary
to only update descriptions.
