what should be a file download path

what is the correct download path : 

 mDbxClient.files().download(Path =?);
 mDbxClient.files().download("https://www.dropbox.com/home/Apps/AndroidDbAppStorage")
.download(outputStream);

here its my code :

public  class DownloadFileTask extends AsyncTask<FileMetadata, Void, File> {

private final Context mContext;
private final DbxClientV2 mDbxClient;
String name,path;
private File file;
DownloadFileTask(Context context, DbxClientV2 dbxClient, String path,String name) {
mContext = context;
mDbxClient = dbxClient;
this.path = path;
this.name=name;
}

@Override
protected File doInBackground(FileMetadata... params) {
try {
file=new File(path+name);
// Download the file.
OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
mDbxClient.files().download("https://www.dropbox.com/home/Apps/AndroidDbAppStorage")
.download(outputStream);

// Tell android about the file
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, LoginActivity.class);
mContext.startActivity(intent);

return file;
} catch (DbxException | IOException e) {
}

return null;
}

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(File result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
if (result.length()!=0) {
Toast.makeText(mContext, "File downloaded", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {

}
}
}
