Check logged in user’s web role

Hi there, please help me with this code. I am trying to create a plugin for Dynamics 365 portal to check the logged in user’s web roles (adx_webrole) and if the user has role named “administrator” then update to the field “permissions” should be allowed otherwise it should throw an error. I am trying following code. Even if i have the administrator web role, it throws error. So i believe my code is not fetching any web roles. Please help.

private bool UserHasWebRole(Guid userId, string webRoleName, IOrganizationService service)
{
// Query to check if the user has the specified web role
QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression(/contact/);
query.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(/contactid/);
query.Criteria.AddCondition(/contactid/, ConditionOperator.Equal, userId);
query.LinkEntities.Add(new LinkEntity(/adx_webrole/, /adx_webrole_contact/, /adx_webroleid/, /contactid/, JoinOperator.Inner));
query.LinkEntities[0].LinkCriteria.AddCondition(/role/, ConditionOperator.Equal, GetWebRoleId(webRoleName, service));

EntityCollection result = service.RetrieveMultiple(query);

// If there are records, the user has the web role
return result.Entities.Count > 0;
}

private Guid GetWebRoleId(string webRoleName, IOrganizationService service)
{
// Retrieve the web role ID based on its name
QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression(/adx_webrole/);
query.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(/adx_webroleid/);
query.Criteria.AddCondition(/adx_name/, ConditionOperator.Equal, webRoleName);

EntityCollection result = service.RetrieveMultiple(query);

// Check if the web role exists
if (result.Entities.Count > 0)
{
return result.Entities[0].Id; y
}
else
{
throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException($/Web role '{webRoleName}' not found./);
}
}
}
