 For Cargo workspaces, [`workspace.metadata`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacemetadata-table) table can be used. (e.g. `[workspace.metadata.git-cliff.<section>]`)
 
+### Python
+
+For Python projects, **git-cliff** can be configured in `pyproject.toml` via the [tool table](https://peps.python.org/pep-0518/#tool-table). To do this, simply replace the available configuration sections with `[tool.git-cliff.<section>]` and place them inside `pyproject.toml`. For example:
+
+```toml
+name = "..."
+
+[project]
+dependencies = []
+
+[tool.git-cliff.changelog]
+header = "All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file."
+body = "..."
+footer = "<!-- generated by git-cliff -->"
+# see [changelog] section for more keys
+[tool.git-cliff.git]
+conventional_commits = true
+commit_parsers = []
+filter_commits = false

 ## Templating
 
 A template is a text where variables and expressions get replaced with values when it is rendered.
