Greetings, I have a table that has a string column with geometry coordinates for a multi polygon. I would like to convert this data to a Polygon feature (ESRI) shapefile. Attached is a snapshot of what this column looks like. Thanks for any information.

It looks like it's probably WKT, try a geometry replacer with encoding set to WKT and and the geometry source is your column containing the string of coordinates
