I had a few problems with this initially due to not requesting the permissions for writing at run time but I have resolved that issue seemingly.The code grabs a pdf file from a website and is supposed to store it in the app directory,I have set the post execute to set a textView to the intended directory for the created file.No file is created and no exceptions are hit so I am pretty stumped here

@Override

new FetchWebsiteData(this).execute();
}
}

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, REQUEST_WRITE_PERMISSION);

//do something
//new FetchWebsiteData().execute();
}
