Failing flow (using Premium Populate a Word Template and Convert Word Document to PDF) using FormatNumber expression

Hi

I have a manual instant flow that:

For a selected item (Sharepoint)
Get item single survey (Sharepoint list) 

Populate a Microsoft Word Template (in OneDrive)

Create docx file on OneDrive
Convert Word Document to PDF

Create PDF in OneDrive

The Sharepoint List contains yearly statistical information - 98 (mainly number) fields. Each individual entry needs to be saved as a PDF.
Many of the questions need to have the thousands separator - I have used the inbuilt format data by examples and the suggested expression: formatNumber(float(outputs('Get_item_single_survey')?['body/SurveyStockebookeaudiobook']), '#,##0')

The flow is giving this error:

Any ideas of what is causing this error?

The raw inputs of the Get single item is displaying all the data.
There will be over 200 responses that need to be saved as a PDF.

Any help is much appreciated.
