Hi Ranvir, most files can be retrieved from 2.31 at
/api/fileResources/<uid>/data, except for files related to data values and
attribute values. The reason is they require a different type of access
check.
In your case you are working with Tracked Entity Attributes, so you can
find your files at /trackedEntityInstances/<tei uid>/<attribute uid>/image
