Dashboards & Visualizations

Why is dashboard drop-down unable to use index field host in dynamic list for drop-down?

I am trying to add a dropdown in a Dashboard in Splunk cloud using the index field host from a metric dataset. I want the host field to dynamically update the dropdown from the host field available in the dataset at any one time.  I am using the search for the data source of the dropdown as '|mcatalog values(host) where index=em_metrics | mvexpand values(host)'.  All other settings on the drop down are the defaults.  I have tried changing the search several times and have been unable to get it to work.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
