I'd like to produce a log file that contains only log output from a particular EventId (or EventIds). Is such functionality supported?

If you want to config Serilog using the appsettings file you can use something like this:
"Serilog": {
"Using": ["Serilog.Sinks.File", "Serilog.Settings.Configuration", "Serilog.Expressions"],
"MinimumLevel": {
"Default": "Debug"
},
"WriteTo": [{
"Name": "File",
"Args": {
"path": "log.txt",
"rollingInterval": "Day",
"retainedFileCountLimit": "120",
"rollOnFileSizeLimit": "true",
"theme": "Serilog.Sinks.SystemConsole.Themes.AnsiConsoleTheme::Code, Serilog.Sinks.Console"
}
}
],
"Filter": [{
"Name": "ByIncludingOnly",
"Args": {
"expression": "EventId.Id = 101"
}
}
]
}
In the using field you have to put all Serilog package that you are importing, then config a sink for writing the logs and finally define a filter.
I almost spent a whole morning trying to achive that so I hope it helps you
