Is there any way to override ‘New’ standard button with lightning component and refer the parent record as prepopulated value in record creation screen? I saw in some posts to achieve this using visualforce override and pass parent recordid in url but I wanted to achieve using only lightning component. Please let me know if more details are needed.
What is the recordid of the related list?
The _lkid parameter value is the recordid of the junction object relationship –essentially the parentId of the relation to the child (of the related List). This parameter populates the saveURL parameter. The xxxxxx value will vary based on Org and relationships but it is the id of the relationship name.

How to retrieve parent record ID when overriding standard?
The main issue in overriding the button on related list is to get the parent record id but i believe instead of overriding the button we can create the custom related list component which would be exactly similar to standard related list and when we will be going to place this on record detail page of parent we can get the id of parent.
Can a lightning component override a related parentid?
Now, when you’re clicking the New button from a Related List of that object then the Lightning Component is activated BUT it looses the context of the record it was initiated from. This means, as a developer you can’t know the origin of the request. For example, you may have a Lightning Component override for New Contact.
