Just use a fake memo. It will work both in the Coinbase website and with their API. The memo is an optional field used to identify a transaction being sent to exchanges, but when sending to a personal wallet, it is not required. However, Coinbase seems to mark it as required, and not providing it will result in transaction error. It's a Coinbase bug.
I just made a test my self, and I was able to send XML from Coinbase website to my Trezor wallet using
Coinbase
as memo. The XML appears on the wallet a few minutes after. Test it with a small amount first if you are not sure.More info about memo being optional: https://support.edge.app/support/solutions/articles/8000071636-what-is-a-stellar-xlm-memo-id-#:~:text=A%20Memo%20ID%20is%20generally,use%20when%20making%20a%20deposit.
