Do point objects have to be imported at the global level?

I have no issue importing multiple embedded user frames and targets and importing them exactly where I want in my RoboDK tree utilizing scripts. However, any 'physical' point objects seem to always go to the global level? Forces me to manually place points which can be time consuming for lots of points.

You may need to place the objects you load in your RoboDK project to the corresponding parent in the tree by using setParent. You can find an example that uses the API setParent function here:

Can you share more information about the script you are using? We can better help you.
