Concatenating URLs w/ Object IDs

How do you concatenate URLs that list object IDs and types in the string? 

 

For example (test sample URL)

https://safe&secure.com/safeharbor/objectFiles.php?object_id=3227922&object_type=customer

 

 

I used the following to try to concatenate this URL and it didn't link to the website: 

 

* Files = CONCATENATE("https://safe&secure.com/safeharbor/objectFiles.php?object_id=",[CustomerID_txt]
 
*(test sample URL)

That's more of a question for your data source / URL target.  Maybe they require the type to always be specified.

 

NOTE:  Instead of CONCATENATE() you can use & .

 

Files = "https://safe&secure.com/safeharbor/objectFiles.php?object_id=" & [CustomerID_txt]
