python - Web scraping results in 403 Forbidden Error

I'm trying to web scrape the earnings for each company off SeekingAlpha using BeautifulSoup. However, it seems like the site is detecting that a web scraper is being used? I get a "HTTP Error 403: Forbidden"

The page I'm attempting to scrape is: https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AMAT/earnings

Does anyone know what can be done to bypass this?

You should try setting User-Agent as one of request headers. Value can be of any known browser.

Example:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.132 Safari/537.36
