How to copy files to a folder which requires access permissions in python?

Question

I am trying to copy files to a location which requires access permissions(has UserID and Password to access the folder).

Is there a parameter or any special command to copy files to location which requires UserId and password?

Currently, I am using shutil.copy2 to copy files but getting below error:

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:

When you get that error, it could mean that you are trying to copy a file that is currently in use, like it's open, or your program opened but haven't closed it. Check to make sure it's closed.

If your file are log files, this might help:

It is a network folder, it requires credentials to perform any operations. I have the credentials, I am not sure how to use the credentials and access folder in python. – user3578298 Jun 23 '20 at 02:44
