Thank you so much, both of you. I indeed tried to find out the correct API
endpoint using the browser devtools, but everything I saw seemed incorrect.
And after these answers, it is so clear what was wrong: I kept looking for
the item UUID instead of the bundle UUID and thought the API-calls to the
bundle endpoint were meant for calling something else. This really helped
me, thank you again!
