Not sure how to resolve the following error when I try to update using 'sudo apt update. Please help.

E: Malformed entry 1 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/packagecloud-shiftky-desktop.list (URI)
E: The list of sources could not be read.

Unfortunately, that didn't work. It gave the same error message.
