Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

We are unable to enable startWorkflow page as our workflow executions require mandatory metadata which is passed via the memo field.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add text box to support populating memo information via StartWorkflow webpage. The memo information gets passed as payload to startWorkflow API.

Describe alternatives you've considered

use temporal CLI which is non-ideal

Start at the StartWorkflow page and trace how its form values are sent to the startWorkflow API. Add a memo text box and include its value in the request payload, then verify that starting a workflow sends the entered memo information.
