You can use a real time workflow if the trigger is on the child.

Hi kartikya,

It seems that you want to get data of record of lookup field. e.g: In contact form, get company's address of the contact and populate a specific single line text field using the value.

If so, please try following code and check whether it works for you:

var parentEntity = formContext.getAttribute('lookupfield_logicalname').getValue()[0]; var parentEntityId = parentEntity.id; var parentEntityName = parentEntity.entityType; // Select all fields var filter = ""; // Select address1_composite field only // var filter = "?$select=address1_composite"; Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord(parentEntityName, parentEntityId, filter).then( function success(result) { console.log(result.address1_composite); formContext.getAttribute("childfield_logicalname").setValue(result.address1_composite); }, function (error) { console.log(error.message); } );

API to retrieve single entity record:
