The latest version of {BiocFileCache} (v3.0.0) doesn't seem to be able to download datasets from figshare with a warning about a 403 error. I'm not sure if this is caused by the major changes in this version or something else.
library(BiocFileCache)
cache <- BiocFileCache(ask = FALSE)
file <- bfcrpath(cache, "https://figshare.com/ndownloader/files/30683438")
# adding rname 'https://figshare.com/ndownloader/files/30683438'

Regular download.file() works so I don't think it is a problem with the link itself.
