gnomAD v3 link not working for download

I am trying to download whole genome GnomAD vcf file but every time I do it gives me ERROR 404: Not found. This is how I am trying to download the data:

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/gnomad-public/release/3.0/vcf/genomes/gnomad.genomes.r3.0.sites.vcf.bgz

However, I can use the same wget command to download GnomAD v2 and it works:

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/gcp-public-data--gnomad/release/2.1.1/liftover_grch38/vcf/genomes/gnomad.genomes.r2.1.1.sites.liftover_grch38.vcf.bgz

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong with GnomADv3. Insights will be appreciated.

gnomad snp vcf

Don't know where you got that specific link from but v. 3.1.1 VCF files are available from gnomAD download page (look for appropriate tab),

your URL is wrong.

$  wget -q -O - "https://storage.googleapis.com/gcp-public-data--gnomad/release/3.1.1/vcf/genomes/gnomad.genomes.v3.1.1.sites.chr1.vcf.bgz" | gunzip -c | head

Thank you for your reply. I found this link too but its per chromosome. I was looking for all chromosome vcf like in gnomad v2. Gnomad v3 doesn't have all chromosomes vcf?

no, but you can always merge the vcfs using bcftools concat

Thank you @Piere this helped.
