It looks like the command you copied was truncated. The files in that directory need to be have a ".list" extension. If you rename the file brave-browser-release-bionic. to brave-browser-release-bionic.list it should work.

If not please post the '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' directory contents here and also display the file brave-browser-release-bionic.list.
