When making an API call like this, the 'path' value you supply should be the file path and name where you want to upload the file. In your case, you're just supplying "/Apps", so that's what the file will be saved as. You should instead supply something like "/myfolder/originalfilename.sav". That is, include the name and extension. (Note that if your app has the "app folder" permission, you don't need to explicitly include "/Apps". That portion will be automatically added for you.)
By the way, you posted your access token publicly. I redacted it from your post for you, but for the sake of security, you should disable that access token. You can do so by revoking access to the app entirely, if the access token is for your account, here:
https://www.dropbox.com/account/security
Or, you can disable just this access token using the API:
