VRA 8.1 (or 8.0) - User inputs for static ip and gateway for Windows Server

Is it possible to allow my users to input a static ip and gateway for their VM when they request it from a blueprint?  It's a windows server 2019 image and I couldn't find an easy way to nicely pass these types of attributes... any suggestions (details please!) would be awesome.

Additional info:

Their VM gets attached to an existing NSX network based on their username and a tag assigned to that network in NSX.  It's a constraint on the network tag.

I also use a customization spec for this template. 

Thanks!

On my service broker form i have a data grid for nics. In my cloud assembly blueprint i convert the data grid input to a string to pass to vRO. I have a subscription to the network configure event where i populate the addresses, cidrs, gateways, dnsServers with the correct IP info for each nic from the data grid.
