Thanks @UnborN this is exactly what I was looking for. Indeed the cookie and some others were the missing pieces. I did tried only adding Accept, Accept-Language, Encoding and Host. But as there are not so many examples on how to properly populate the headers in the http-request is was kind of difficult for me to figure it out. With the example you provided, I even managed to attach all the header elements into the same http-request node. and it is working like a charm!
