# Create XML files and send them to Google Drive

> Next Matter allows you to create XML files automatically and place them in a Google Drive folder of your choice.

This scenario can be useful if you want to create multiple SEPA instructions.

## Before you begin

* You need to be familiar with the XML structure of the output file. A sample structure is [available here](https://www.hettwer-beratung.de/sepa-spezialwissen/sepa-technische-anforderungen/pain-format-sepa-pain-001-sct/).
* Make sure you have a Google Drive folder set up.
* Check the [required scopes](/docs/security-matrix) to learn more about which data is shared between the apps.
* Connect Google services in Next Matter with a service account and share data with this account. [Learn more...](/docs/integrate-with-google)
* We assume you have a workflow created in Next Matter,

## Generate the file

1. In your process, create a new integration step.
2. Click **Settings**, and enter the following details:

* **Method**: POST
* **URL**:

<CodeGroup>
  ```http HTTPS theme={null}
  https://n962q5mp7c.execute-api.eu-central-
  1.amazonaws.com/g/util/template_text_gdrive/PARENTIDOFGOOGLEDRIVEFOLDER/DATAREFERENCETOFILENAMEFORXML?
  amount=DATAREFERENCETOAMOUNT&bic=DATAREFERENCETOBIC&kunde=DATAREFERENCETOCUSTOMERNAME&iban=DATAREFERENCETOIBAN&usage=DATAREFERENCE
  TOVERWENDUNGSZWECK&_fileextension=xml
  ```
</CodeGroup>

<Tip>
  You can add multiple variables to the URL, separated with "?". They can to be inserted in the body in the format of \<%= VARIABLENAME %>
</Tip>

* **Headers**: Content-Type: text/xml
* **Authorization**: Google Drive
* **Body**: The body for a DATEV-readable-XML file for SEPA Bank transfers might look like the following:
