Get CSV with cURL or File get conent and sent post values with it

I have a problem with cURL(I also tried it with file get content?). My starting point is a webserver that supplies me with an CSV file. To get the CSV file I've got to post some data to it (login details)

I have the following script already:

$url ='https://services.easyposonline.nl/i-shop/services/exporter/csv/artikelen.csv';
$httpRequest = curl_init();

curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Content-Type: text/csv"));
curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);

curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($httpRequest, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);

$returnHeader = curl_exec($httpRequest);
print_r($returnHeader);
curl_close($httpRequest);

$data has my login detail for the post.

When posting this I get this back:

<?php


$cookie_file_path = "downloads/cookie.txt";
$fp = fopen($cookie_file_path, "w");
fclose($fp);

$loginUrl = '/url/to/log in to site';
$downloadUrl = '/path/to/ csv file';

$loginPostInfo = array(
    // data that need to be posted
);

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $loginUrl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR,  $cookie_file_path);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_file_path);


curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $loginPostInfo);
curl_exec($ch);

// now curl request for download file
$filePath = "downloads/foo.csv";
$file = fopen($filePath, "w+");

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $downloadUrl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $file);
$result = curl_exec($ch);

fclose($file);
curl_close($ch);
