    You should never retrieve web resources by ID, they're deployed by solution and the ID will change. Use name as a unique identifier.

    Your AttributeName should be name instead of webresourceid.

    Refer this:

    Hi Jason,

    Thank you for looking into this, I don't have the ID, since the image/webresource isn't in a form.

    If you know the id - don't use RetrieveMultiple - just use Retrieve

    Entity wr = _client.Retrieve("webresource", new Guid("043081CB-ADE9-E611-8105-C4346BAC1938"), new ColumnSet("content"));
byte[] b = Convert.FromBase64String(wr.GetAttributeValue<string>("content"));
