Hello Mukhan1833,
you can refer this code for Get Value of Lookup fields
EntityReference entref = (EntityReference)item.Attributes[attributeName];
var LookupId = entref.Id;
var logicalName = entref.LogicalName;
Set Value of Lookup fields
newAccount[attributeName] = new EntityReference(logicalName, LookupId);
Or you can refer this site for GET/SET of all datatype.

Hi mukhan1833,
Below is the sample code:
Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
if (entity.LogicalName == "new_xyz") //entity logical name
{
if (entity.Attributes.Contains("new_abc")) //Lookup field logical name
{
EntityReference lookupObj = (EntityReference)entity.Attributes["new_abc"];
name = lookupObj.Name;
Guid id = lookupObj.Id;
}
}
