The traceback states "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory" and then lists a byte string that looks identical to a XML file:
The core problem is that the expected filepath is a XML-formatted byte string.
Nevermind. I see what you're on about now. The documentation for requests.Session indicate that the username and password need to be set to the object, not just passed into the post() method:

Nevermind. I see what you're on about now. The documentation for requests.Session indicate that the username and password need to be set to the object, not just passed into the post() method:
s = requests.Session()
s.auth = ('user', 'pass')
s.headers.update({'x-test': 'true'})
# both 'x-test' and 'x-test2' are sent
s.get('https://httpbin.org/headers', headers={'x-test2': 'true'})Try setting s.auth with the username and password.
