This does not seem to work. Also I am not able to search for vision client tags for linking it. Any fix?

Vision client tags don't exist in the gateway, so cannot be referenced by gateway scope stuff (tags, alarms, gateway scripts) at all.

What are you really trying to do?

I think you should probably just turn on Ignition's auditing feature.
