Hello Expertsm

In the above screenshot Started By comes default as the workflow destination users name. I want to change it to the actual user name. How can I achieve this?

This is because you used authentication by client credentials (aka as technical user) created in service key of process automation service. If you want to have name of the user there, you have to call the POST endpoint of WF API through different authentication process - eg. SSO or SAML Bearer or User token exchange or others.
