Dropdown 'set selected' doesn't work when using apiSettings to populate values?

[squatman86]

I'm using the Semantic UI Dropdown.

The below works perfectly and selects the values specified:

    const users = [
        {value: 1, name: "Atomic Petrie"},
        {value: 2, name: "Jay Hammo"},
        {value: 3, name: "Weaz Whites"},
        {value: 4, name: "Lobo Bongus"},
        {value: 5, name: "Tree Bone"},
    ]
    
    $('.ui.dropdown').dropdown({
        values: users
    });
    
    $('.ui.dropdown').dropdown('refresh');
    $('.ui.dropdown').dropdown('set selected', ['1', '3', '2']);

But if I populate the dropdown values with the following:

    $('.ui.dropdown').dropdown({
        apiSettings: {url: `${server}/get-people`}
    });

The specified values are no longer selected.

The drop down is populated with the retrieved data and the data definitely contains values '1', '3' and '2'.

    // get people for use with Semantic Dropdown
    app.get('/get-people', (req, res) => {
        console.log("test")
        sql.connect(db, e => {
            if (e) {
                console.log(e)
                res.status(500).send(e.message)
            } else {
                new sql.Request().query(`
                SELECT
                (
                    SELECT 'true' AS 'success', 
                    (
                        SELECT id AS 'value', full_name AS [name] 
                        FROM [User] 
                        ORDER BY full_name 
                        FOR JSON PATH
                    ) AS 'results'
                    FOR JSON PATH, WITHOUT_ARRAY_WRAPPER
                ) AS 'result'
                `, (e, result) => {
                    if (e) {
                        console.log(e)
                        return res.status(500).send(e.message)
                    } else {
                        console.dir(JSON.parse(result.recordset[0].result), { depth: null });
                        return res.status(200).json(JSON.parse(result.recordset[0].result))
                    }
                })
            }
        })
    })

This is the Semantic UI page I was using for configuration https://semantic-ui.com/modules/dropdown.html#/examples

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
