Hey, @Ismaiel welcome to the forum. As can be seen in this issue this error is probably caused because the ~/.ignition/fuel/config.yaml file still points to the old ignition fuel domain. This error can be solved by replacing url: https://api.ignitionfuel.org by url: https://api.ignitionrobotics.org inside the ~/.ignition/fuel/config.yaml file.

@aayush when you open a terminal and write "ls -a" you will see ".ignition" file
