You could use object snaps to eg start drawing a line from the point you want, then LIST the line to get the coordinates. Not sure if you can directly list the coordinates from just one point in a cloud.

Hi,

 

>> I need to get my X,Y,Z coordinates in autocad for one point

If it's really a point-cloud, then use 3D-ObjectSnap for "point-cloud point" with command _ID

On your screenshot, the coords show Z to be 0.0000

I've never seen somebody working without a command line before! 

@Alfred.NESWADBA's suggestion of _ID command will return the X,Y,Z coordinates of the selected point to the command line.

Hi,

 

>> I got only x,y coordinates

You have not used command _ID and picked one point in the point-cloud using 3D-ObjectSnap.
