So the handle 10744/a8f5c347-7a75-4b0e-9563-ef57c3d613df resolves to https://www.meertens.knaw.nl/flat/objects/lat:10744_a8f5c347_7a75_4b0e_9563_ef57c3d613df/datastreams/CMD/content\?asOfDateTime\=2017-01-27T11:30:42.276.

This endpoint returns a valid HTTP 302 response if you send the Accept: text/html header, and an HTTP 404 if you don't send this header. The VCR validation does not (and should not) send this header and thus fails validation.

Curl examples:

Failing:

curl -v https://www.meertens.knaw.nl/flat/objects/lat:10744_a8f5c347_7a75_4b0e_9563_ef57c3d613df/datastreams/CMD/content\?asOfDateTime\=2017-01-27T11:30:42.276

Working:

curl -v -H "Accept: text/html" https://www.meertens.knaw.nl/flat/objects/lat:10744_a8f5c347_7a75_4b0e_9563_ef57c3d613df/datastreams/CMD/content\?asOfDateTime\=2017-01-27T11:30:42.276
