Mysqldump can't create/write to file

[dylanelliott27]

I am on MacOS using Mamp as my local environment.

When trying to push my database to staging, I get the error: mysqldump: Can't create/write to file 'path-here' (Errcode: 13 - Permission denied)

I assume this might be because I am using the MySQL from within Mamp, and it doesn't have permission to write to a file outside of Mamp?

Has anyone came across this before or know how to give it permission to write the dump file?

Thank you.
