Hi Zahraa Daniel Naim,

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q & A forum. 

The error message "remote: Repository not found" indicates that Git cannot find the repository at the specified URL. There are a few common reasons for this issue.

Here are some troubleshoot steps to resolve it:

1.Ensure that the repository URL is correct. Double-check the URL you provided.

https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/mslearn-doc-intelligence

2.If the repository is private, make sure you have the necessary permissions to access it and you are using HTTPS, ensure that you have the correct username and password/token if required.

3.If the repository is private, make sure you have the correct credentials configured. You can use HTTPS with a username and password or set up SSH keys.

For HTTPS:

git clone https://******@github.com/MicrosoftLearning/mslearn-doc-intelligence movie-genre-function

Replace "username" with your GitHub username.

4.If you're using SSH, ensure that your SSH key is correctly configured and added to your GitHub account And Sometimes GitHub may experience downtime or issues. Check the GitHub Status page to see if there are any ongoing issues.

5.Try the clone command again after verifying the above steps.

6.If you are working in a lab environment or using a specific platform, there might be additional requirements or configurations needed. Check the lab instructions or documentation for any specific steps.

 

After checking and trying the above steps, I assume you are able to clone the repository.

Hi I was facing the same issue. The path has changed, I got it resolved by using https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/mslearn-doc-intelligence instead of "movie-genre-function" all the required files are now under "cognitive-search"
