Problems with sparklines and saved searches

I have a saved search "MY_SEARCH_1H" defined as follows

action.summary_index = 1

action.summary_index.reporttime = hourly

action.summary_index.reporttype = myperf

action.summary_index._name = mysummary

cron_schedule = 30 * * * *

dispatch.earliest_time = -1h@h

dispatch.latest_time = @h

enableSched = 1

search = index="app" sourcetype="my_service" | rename sourcetype as AppSourceType | fillnull value=na | sistats count(OperationName) as Count, exactperc99.9(Duration) as TP99.9, exactperc99(Duration) as TP99, exactperc95(Duration) as TP95, exactperc90(Duration) as TP90, exactperc50(Duration) as TP50,min(Duration) as Min, avg(Duration) as Avg , max(Duration) as Max by AppSourceType,ActivityName,OperationName,ActivityStep

disabled = 0

I am trying to build a chart using the following :

index=mysummary search_name="MY_SEARCH_1H" | chart min(Duration) as Min, avg(Duration) as Avg , max(Duration) as Max,exactperc99(Duration) as TP99,sparkline(avg(Duration),1h) as spark by OperationName

Everything works fine except the sparkline does not display.

Instead if I do this:

index=app sourcetype=my_service |chart min(Duration) as Min, avg(Duration) as Avg , max(Duration) as Max,exactperc99(Duration) as TP99,sparkline(avg(Duration),1h) as spark by OperationName

everything works fine and the sparkline is visible.

Any idea as to how I can fix this?

Sparkline results are graphical only, they cannot be exported properly.
Maybe is it the same issue with a saved search.
