Powershell - how do I list files and write their path into an output file?

Question

I want to list *.xml files which are in several subdirectories. Then I want to write their path and their names into an txt file. I managed to write the names into an txt file, however, I have no idea how to add their paths. What do I need to change/add?

Get-ChildItem path -recurse -include *.xml| ForEach-Object { $_.Name } > path\output.txt

Thank you for your help! Cheers, Iris

Get-ChildItem path -recurse -include *.xml| ForEach-Object { $_.FullName } > path\output.txt
