Software Pack for TeamViewer

Description

FileWave is immensely powerful but can be daunting when it comes to stitching the various components of a complex workflow together.  Content packs are meant to give a leg-up in creating distributable content and are also a great way to learn by example!  Each content pack is meant to be a "whole solution", putting together all of the pieces of FileWave to accomplish a goal.

To import this pack follow: How to Import a Content Pack

This FileWave Content Pack is designed for:

Package Goal OS Versions
Provide Install Filesets, Reports and Dashboard

Android

Uploaded content should not overwrite any current Custom Fields, Filesets, Computer Groups, Deployments or Inventory Groups.  Any matching names should be incremented with a number (with the exception of Queries, where duplicate names are allowed).

What is in this Content Pack

All Content Packs contain selectable items, not everything need be selected.

This content pack provides:

Custom Fields:

"Custom Fields" are a terrific way to extend the "inventory attributes" of devices.  Included in this content pack:

* Names may have a number after if a matching name was found at upload.

Note that Content Packs DO NOT automatically assign devices or device groups to deployments (for safety reasons).  After sufficient testing, edit the deployment, adding desired targets of devices or device groups.

Any device groups created by the pack could be used as targets, if deemed appropriate.

Reports (aka Inventory Queries):

Reports are a great way of measuring the effectiveness of distributing content and can be used for all sorts of compliance purposes as well.  Trust, but verify is what reports are all about.  Included in this content pack:

Report Group Name Report Name Description
TeamViewer Dashboard
TeamViewer Managed Listed of computer device types just for Dashboard information

Updating TeamViewer Host

If you would like to download the latest installer for TeamViewer Host for macOS or Windows, you can always get it from https://go.filewave.com/tvhost and if you go to it on a macOS system then the PKG will download, and if you go to it on Windows the EXE will download. For details on the Filesets used for install and customizing them you should take a look at TeamViewer: Windows Client Setup and TeamViewer: macOS Client Setup. Note that for Windows only the EXE is available via this link. We are working on how to expose the MSI directly.
