#### Step2: File creation

Once Step1 has been completed, the user can create a javascript file in the root directory and subsequently insert the provided code into the file in order to execute a transaction on the Ethereum network.

```javascript
const {signTransaction,sendTransaction} = require('./src/index');

async function transfer() {
    const rawTransaction = await signTransaction({
        from: 'SENDER_WALLET_ADDRESS',
        to: 'RECEIVER_WALLET_ADDRESS',
        value: '1', // in wei
        gas: '50000',
    },{
        privateKey: 'YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY',
        xApiKey : 'YOUR_API_KEY',
        chainId : "1" // 5 for goerli
    }).then(rawTransaction => sendTransaction({
        rawTransaction: rawTransaction.rawTransaction,
        xApiKey : 'YOUR_API_KEY',
        chainId:"1" // 5 for goerli
    })).then(res => console.log(res));
}

transfer()
```

Upon completion of the transaction, the user will be provided with the transaction hash.
