# Connect Paige to Xero

Three working paths from Paige into Xero: an automation on Zapier or Make that creates each bill from Paige's extracted fields and attaches the PDF; forwarding Paige's PDFs to Xero's bills email address so Xero drafts the bill; or Xero's CSV bill import for batches. Which to pick, what lands in Xero, and the step-by-step guides.

**Paige reads the invoice — vendor, invoice number, dates, total — and Xero gets the bill, with the PDF attached, without anyone keying it in.**

Xero has three ways in, and Paige's export can feed all of them.

## What lands in Xero

|  | Zapier or Make | Email to Xero bills | CSV import |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| A **bill** per invoice | Created within minutes, as a draft or awaiting approval, your choice | Xero creates a **draft bill** from the PDF using its own reading; Paige's values aren't sent, only the PDF | Draft bills created when you run the import, in batches |
| Contact, dates, reference, amount | From Paige's fields | Whatever Xero reads from the PDF — usually contact, dates, and total | From Paige's CSV columns via Xero's template |
| The **PDF attached** | Yes | Yes — it's how the bill was created | No — attach by hand or skip |
| Effort | Build once | Almost none | A few minutes per batch |

## Pick a path

| Path | Choose it when | Guide |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Zapier or Make** | You want Paige's exact values on the bill and the PDF attached, automatically. Needs a paid Zapier or Make plan. | [Send Paige invoices to Xero with Zapier or Make](/paige/integrations/send-paige-invoices-to-xero-with-zapier-or-make) |
| **Email to Xero bills** | You mostly want the PDFs into Xero with minimal setup and you're happy with Xero's own reading of them (you still review every draft). Needs any tool that can email a file — the guide uses the same automation platforms, just one step. | [Email Paige invoices to Xero bills](/paige/integrations/email-paige-invoices-to-xero-bills) |
| **CSV import** | You enter bills in batches and don't want a subscription; attaching PDFs by hand is acceptable. | [Import Paige invoices into Xero from CSV](/paige/integrations/import-paige-invoices-into-xero-from-csv) |

> **NOTE:** Why pay Paige to read the invoice and then let Xero re-read it in the email path? Because Paige's reading — including handwritten and poor-quality documents — is what you review, and it's what goes to every other system. The email path is the low-effort way to also get the PDF into Xero. If you want Paige's values on the bill itself, use the Zapier or Make path.
