Hello,

I am using the latest version of ArcGIS Pro. I recently created a geodatabase with feature datasets nesting each class

For example:

  • Geodatabase
    • Infrastructure
      • Roads
      • Sidewalks
      • Catch Basins

I have coworkers who use QGIS and cannot load classes from the geodatabase (question for another time), so I am attempting to export some of these feature classes as shapefiles. However, whenever I try to export (either by right clicking export or by using geoprocessing tools) I receive the error in the title of this post

 ERROR 002809: Field OID in Zoning is of an unsupported type for the output workspace.

I have been unable to find any way to remedy this issue. Clearly I am unable to delete the ObjectID field which is what I am assuming the error is having an issue with. I am able to export this without issue to other geodatabases, but just not shapefiles. I have this same issue for every feature class within the geodatabase

I just came along the thread,I have the problem with gdb and gpkg on a regular basis. I followed the solution. My input gdb has still 64bit ObjectID, but I could use the quick export of the data interoperability for export to shape. We are lucky to have the full version with all extensions.
