HTTP Settings: User, Password - Failed

Hello! I want to grab info from www. merchantwords.com
Url I use is https://www.merchantwords.com/search/v1/us/resistance%20band%20leg/sort-highest
I filled the credentials as on the screenshot. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. What have I done wrong?

AFAIK credentials only work for basic & digest authentication. I saw somewhere you can use logged cookies but i can't find article about it.

Yes, finally I really did grabbed cookies through dev panel and pasted it in http settings and it worked without user:pass even. But it worked only with the query which I have already worked with through the site. E.g. https://www.merchantwords.com/search/v1/us/strength%20bands%20for%20pull%20ups/sort-highest - I worked with is through the site directly, then typed cookies in and excel fetches data.

If I do new query through excel, I apparently need new set of cookies because with a new query the fetching fails - website doesn't "see" me as logged in.
