      Hi You can use Scheduled Flows. Run a flow daily and get all the cases where verified = true and change their status to closed. Example : https://accidentalcoder.blogspot.com/2020/06/schedule-flows-salesforce.html

      There is a feature called a fault path that works perfectly well. You can write to a log object if you'd like.

    There are a few things to keep in mind when you buy TikTok accounts. First, make sure that the account you purchase is high quality and has a solid following. There is no point in paying for an account with only a few followers. Second, be sure to do your research before you buy. There are a lot of scammers out there selling fake or inactive accounts. Finally, be prepared to engage with your new followers. If you don't, they will quickly lose interest and unfollow you. tiktok creator account
