Copying Multiple Values from Cells into One Cell to Add to URL String
I'm pretty good with Excel but new to Smartsheets... I'm trying to take the FirstName and LastName columns and then use the values in those cells to create the values of the URL string to populate in for our RefId= under Link column. What's the best way to do this?

Try something along the lines of
="base_URL?RefId=" + LEFT(FirstName@row) + LastName@row

Hi @bpilon_lob
I hope you're well and safe!
Is it always the first letter of the FirstName and the whole LastName?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
