            "path": "."

Notes for No imports found for ... message

Looks like you do not have opened folders in current Sublime window.

It is recommended to create project from your working files and folders, you can do it in top menu:
Project -> Save project as...
Save project file in any place you want.
Then restart Sublime.

Currently, it is not posssible to detect when project was switched (Project -> Quick Switch Project), in this case you need manually re-initialize plugin:
Select Import Helper: Initialize / Setup / Update modules from command palette
