Hello everyone,
i wanted to roll out our new custom TeamViewer Host and everything works except that our custom design with the company logo is not displayed.
I did it exactly as in the instructions: https://hcsonline.com/images/PDFs/Jamf_Teamviewer_Host.pdf
After the custom logo didn't show up, I kept searching and came across these instructions:
The groups and the membership works but unfortunately our custom layout does not. Am I missing something or have I done something wrong?

Hi @tgd
I came across the same issue recently and found a way to properly deploy a TeamViewer customization through Jamf Pro. I thought others may find this info useful.
Here are my deployments steps:
- Create and download a custom TeamViewerHost DMG file in TeamViewer's admin dashboard
- This DMG file should have a name like "TeamViewerHost-XXX1XXXX23.dmg", save the ID "XXX1XXXX23" at the end of the file name for later use
- Deploy the TeamViewerHost app using your preferred method in Jamf Pro. Personally, I used the Jamf App Catalog method to automatically deploy the latest version of this app without having to upload a PKG.
- Create a policy, enable the payload "Files and processes" and add the following command in the field "Execute Command":
xattr -w "com.TeamViewer.ConfigurationId" "XXX1XXXX23" /Applications/TeamViewerHost.app
- This will tell TeamViewerHost to use this customization ID to fetch its config online
- Restart the TeamViewer app and your company logo should appear in TeamViewer
Note: If you want to manually test in Terminal before using Jamf Pro, ensure you're root to be allowed to run the xattr command.
