Let $$\mathfrak {T}_2$$ T2 (resp. $$\mathfrak {T}$$ T ) be the Hermitian symmetric domain of $$\textit{Spin}(2,10)$$ Spin(2,10) (resp. $$E_{7,3}$$ E7,3 ). In previous work (Compos. Math 152(2):223–254, 2016), we constructed holomorphic cusp forms on $$\mathfrak {T}$$ T from elliptic cusp forms with respect to $$\textit{SL}_2(\mathbb {Z})$$ SL2(Z) . By using such cusp forms we construct holomorphic cusp forms on $$\mathfrak {T}_2$$ T2 which are similar to Miyawaki lift constructed by Ikeda (Duke Math J 131:469–497, 2006) in the context of symplectic groups. It is conditional on the conjectural Jacquet–Langlands correspondence from $$\textit{PGSO}(2,10)$$ PGSO(2,10) to $$\textit{PGSO}(6,6)$$ PGSO(6,6) .
