StructuredOutput (JSON Output) missing on "Create Text with GPT"

Does anyone know why the "structuredOutput" property (JSON Output) of the AI Builder "Create Text with GPT..." action doesn't always appear in the final output? Is it a rate limite/throttling issue?

(I am just playing with it in a development environment, using trial licenses etc. if that's a factor).

Here's an example/more background:
I'm really enjoying the AI Builder for Power Automate connector, especially custom prompts with the "Create Text with GPT using a prompt" action.

I frequently use the JSON Output feature to structure the GPT output.

This works wonderfully--when it works. Frequently the "structuredOutput" property of the action's output is just missing--fortunately the JSON object is usually still there in string format in the "text" property. My work around to avoid flow failures is to use a JSON() expression on the "text" output, and then I can either coalesce references to the properties, or coalesce the whole object into a compose or variable. It'd be much easier and quicker to construct the flows if I could rely on the structured output always being there.

Here I have a prompt that extracts some data from records to help categorize them automatically.

Example of a Good run (has "structuredOutput" property):
