New installations is not added to management Console
Teamviewer 14
New clients are installed via MSI-package, Registry-file and the Command:
TeamViewer_Host.msi" CUSTOMCONFIGID=xxxxxxxx IMPORTREGFILE=1 ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=ReallySuppress /L*v %LocalPackageDir%\setup.log
In the Management-Console the Value for "Automatically Add Computer to Group" is set.
But the Clients don not show up in the management-Console.
Did work fine in Teamviewer 12, but can't get it to work with the changes made in Teamviewer 14

Hello @olefisk,
Thank you for your message.
Make sure to put also the API TOKEN of your custom modules in your command line, so the assignment works correctly.
If you are doing a classic silent deployment, your command line should look like this:
msiexec.exe /i "path\TeamViewer_Host.msi" /qn IMPORTREGFILE=1 CUSTOMCONFIGID=<YOURCONFIGID> APITOKEN=<YOURAPITOKEN> ASSIGNMENTOPTIONS="--reassign --alias %ComputerName%"
If you want to deploy your devices to a specific group, you can also add the group ID:
msiexec.exe /i "path\TeamViewer_Host.msi" /qn IMPORTREGFILE=1 CUSTOMCONFIGID=<YOURCONFIGID> APITOKEN=<YOURAPITOKEN> ASSIGNMENTOPTIONS="--reassign --alias %ComputerName% --group-id g123456789"
You can find the group-id when logging into the Management Console, clicking on the group and checking the URL. At the end of the URL, you will find "g/123456789".
Note: Please remove the "/" in order to get your group-id.
I hope this could help. If not, do not hesitate to ask your questions here.
Cheers,

Hi Jean
Thanks for the detailed information.
Sorry for the late reply, but I did have to do a lot of Testing.
I'm using the Application "EasyInstall" for deploying Teamviewer, and It seems that it causes some Issues using "Assignmentoptions", so I ended up with the following parameters which works:
msiexec.exe /i "path\TeamViewer_Host.msi" /qn IMPORTREGFILE=1 CUSTOMCONFIGID=<YOURCONFIGID> APITOKEN=<YOURAPITOKEN>
In the Teamivewer management-Console it is configured that new clients are places in a specific Group.
Best regards

Hello @olefisk
No worries - I totally understand. ?
It is great to hear that you have now found the correct line to deploy your TeamViewer clients.
It is also interesting that the ASSIGNMENTSOPTIONS can cause problems with some deployment apps - we will forward this internally.
We wish you a good rest of the week and hope to see you soon again on the Community.
Cheers,
Jean
