IllegalArgumentException: Not a file URI: null

Comment

// if you are downloading video rather using 

downloadManager.setDestinationUri(downloadPath.path.toUri())

// use this
val downloadPath = File(temporaryPath)
// deleting the file if it already exists, because downloadManager will create the file if not exists
if (downloadPath.exists()) {
    downloadPath.delete()
}
downloadManager.setDestinationUri(Uri.fromFile(downloadPath))

// temporaryPath is the path of the file destination with the file name
// eg: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.company.packageName/files/Movies/118.mp4
