When I try following python code to fetch content from a url hosted in Zendesk, i get following 403 Forbidden Error: 

 Python Code:

url = 'https://support.qs.com/hc/en-gb/articles/13248576515484-2024-QS-World-University-Rankings-Online-MBA-Badges'

   

    html_content = fetch_content(url)

    if html_content:

        text_content = html_to_text(html_content.decode('utf-8'))

        output_pdf_file = os.path.join('output', 'output.pdf')  # Output directory and file name

        if not os.path.exists('output'):

            os.makedirs('output')

        save_text_to_pdf(text_content, output_pdf_file)

        print(f'PDF saved to {output_pdf_file}')

 

Error:

Error fetching https://support.qs.com/hc/en-gb/articles/13248576515484-2024-QS-World-University-Rankings-Online-MBA-Badges: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

Hi @romit 

Are you trying to scrape the page?
