How to download a shared item on google colab using wget?

Question

I have a shared link like the below

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tfBFavijh4UTG4cGqIKwhcklLXUDuY0D/view

but I am unable to download it google colab using the command

wget https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tfBFavijh4UTG4cGqIKwhcklLXUDuY0D/view

Few suggestion on the internet were to use the below command

wget --no-check-certificate 'https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=FILEID' -O FILENAME

but this didn't work. Any help is appreciated!
