Ignition 7.6.2  
With the binding function “Audit log” on a table component or the system.util.queryAuditLog function, in the target filter, I would like to use wilcards or list of filter (like with alarm status)

I got to this post searching for the same request.

In Ignition 7.9.2 you can use % instead of \* for wild cards. I did not try on earlier versions.  
For example %SearchTerm%  
This matches the format of the SQL LIKE operator that is probably using behind the scenes.
