Error while downloading the data using SRA Tools

This is the command:

esearch -db sra -query PRJNA714081 efetch -format runinfo | cut -d "," -f1 | grep SRR | xargs fastq-dump -X 10000 --skip-technical --readids --read-filter pass -dumpbase --split-3 --gzip

The error that appears for me:

2022-12-24T17:30:25 fastq-dump.2.8.0 err: param empty while validating argument list - expected accession

Could anyone please help me to fix this error as soon as possible because I have a deadline to submit it thanks.

Where I can download the data using this accession number PRJNA714081 or PRJNA732831? Is there a website that can help me to download the data without this command line or I should use the command line?

esearch -db sra -query PRJNA714081 efetch -format runinfo | cut -d "," -f1 | grep SRR | xargs fastq-dump -X 10000 --skip-technical --readids --read-filter pass -dumpbase --split-3 --gzip
