[asterisk-users] How to escape the & in BackGround

[Dovid Bender]

I tried tinyURL and that did not work. I got an error of:
file.c:789 ast_openstream_full: File https://tinyurl.com/bdfye5ts9 does not
exist in any format (URL changed to hide aws key). I tried adding
\;foo=wav. but that did not work either.
