You can use the attribute `model_config` that takes a `dict` as described in <a href="https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/api/config/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Pydantic's docs: Configuration</a>.

You can set `"json_schema_extra"` with a `dict` containing any additional data you would like to show up in the generated JSON Schema, including `examples`.
