how to open a new form through a ribbon button click and populate it in Javascript Dynamics 365 CRM

my code is supposed to take info from the context and open a new form to populate it

i tried with xrm.page and formContext but didnt work

heres my code i dont know why its not working and in the debugger it says there's something wrong with populating the optionset

function CreateAndPopulateNewBackupDetailsForm(Context)
{
    
    var formContext = Context;
    var name = formContext.getAttribute("firstname").getValue();
    var addressName = formContext.getAttribute("address1_name").getValue();
    var mobilephone = formContext.getAttribute("mobilephone").getValue();
    var email = formContext.getAttribute("emailaddress1").getValue();
    var faxNumber = formContext.getAttribute("fax").getValue();

    var entity = {};
    entity.alf_name = name;
    entity.alf_address = addressName;
    entity.alf_email = email;
    entity.alf_telephone = mobilephone;
    entity.alf_fax = faxNumber;
    entity.getControl("alf_contact").getAttribute().getValue();

    Xrm.WebApi.online.createRecord("alf_backupdetails", entity).then(
        function success(result) {
            var newEntityId = result.id;
        },
        function(error) {
            Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(error.message);
        }
    );
}
