Tech Time with Thomas | Building a Jira Ticket Expansion Workflow with Raia and n8n

Thomas Hall and Rich Swier walk through a practical AI workflow that connects Raia, n8n, and Jira to automatically expand sparse development tickets into detailed, useful requirements. If your team has ever opened a Jira issue with only a title and no real context, this build shows how an AI agent can step in and do the heavy lifting.

Thomas breaks down how to create a task agent in Raia, borrow an existing vector store, configure reasoning and file search, and connect the agent to an n8n workflow that pulls open Jira issues, sends the title to the agent, and writes back a richer description. The conversation also covers async prompt handling, API setup, looping through pending jobs, and how teams can iterate on outputs to match their preferred ticket format.

This is a great example of how AI agents can plug directly into real business workflows without forcing full process change or heavy dev overhead. If you want more hands-on builds like this, subscribe and follow along as we explore practical ways to put AI to work across your stack.
