In Ubuntu 18.04, I'm not able to dock TeamViewer. Even if I right click on the TeamViewer icon when opened, I can't see an option to make it favorite. How can I dock the teamviewer here permanently?

Following Cannot add custom launcher to Ubuntu Dock (Add to Favorites) as suggested by pomsky, the following worked.
Get a list of existing favorites
$ gsettings get org.gnome.shell favorite-apps
['org.gnome.Terminal.desktop', 'jetbrains-pycharm-ce.desktop', 'spacefm.desktop', 'notepad-plus-plus_notepad-plus-plus.desktop', 'google-chrome.desktop', 'org.gnome.Screenshot.desktop', 'gnome-system-monitor_gnome-system-monitor.desktop', 'teams.desktop']
Locate where the desktop files are stored using one the listed favorites
$ locate org.gnome.Terminal.desktop
/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Terminal.desktop
Search for desktop file of teamviewer at that lcoation
$ ls /usr/share/applications | grep teamviewer
com.teamviewer.TeamViewer.desktop
Add teamviewer desktop file to list of favorites
$ gsettings set org.gnome.shell favorite-apps "['org.gnome.Terminal.desktop', 'jetbrains-pycharm-ce.desktop', 'spacefm.desktop', 'notepad-plus-plus_notepad-plus-plus.desktop', 'google-chrome.desktop', 'org.gnome.Screenshot.desktop', 'gnome-system-monitor_gnome-system-monitor.desktop', 'teams.desktop', 'com.teamviewer.TeamViewer.desktop']"
