AI-powered email to Jira ticket creation with Llama 3.2

This AI-powered workflow reads emails, understands the request using an LLM, and creates structured Jira issues.

Key Insights

  • Poll for new emails every 5 minutes; ensure Gmail/IMAP is properly configured.
  • AI analysis requires a reliable LLM model (e.g., Chat Model or AI Tool).

Workflow Process

  • Trigger the workflow with the Check for New Emails Gmail Trigger node.
  • Fetch full email content using the Fetch Full Email Content get message node.
  • Analyze email content with the Analyze Email & Extract Tasks node using AI.
  • Parse the AI-generated JSON output into tasks with the Parse JSON Output from AI node.
  • Create the main Jira issue with the Jira - Create Main Issue create: issue node.
  • Split subtasks from JSON and create them with the Split Subtasks JSON Items and Create Subtasks create: issue nodes.

Usage Guide

  • Import the workflow into n8n and configure Gmail and Jira credentials.
  • Test with a sample email to ensure ticket creation and subtask assignment.

Prerequisites

  • Gmail/IMAP credentials for email polling
  • Jira API credentials with issue creation permissions

Customization Options

Adjust the Analyze Email & Extract Tasks node to refine AI task extraction or modify the polling frequency in the trigger node.
