Additional Information

The 'Output to GeoJSON' parameter must be used in conjunction with the GeoJSON file extension. The GeoJSON file extension alone creates an EsriJSON data format inside a text file with the GeoJSON extension. As both JSON and GeoJSON are supported output files, use of the 'Output to GeoJSON' parameter is required to clarify if the content will be written as EsriJSON or GeoJSON.

Workaround

Select 'Output to GeoJSON' instead of manually changing the suffix from JSON to GeoJSON in the Features To JSON tool.
