I found the 5e Effects for Advance Auto link and found this: ADVSAV66191

That is for ALL Saves. My character is wearing the Robe of the ArchMagi so gets Advantage on Spell Saves and other Magical Effects

I would just use ADVSAV with no colon or spells

Your first instinct is the correct one. Magic Resistance gives the player advantage on saving throws against magic. ADVSAV will give advantage on all saving throws; you can limit this to certain abilities like ADVSAV: dexterity, strength but you can't have ADVSAV: magic or ADVSAV: spells since those aren't abilities so FGVTT won't recognise them and just give you advantage on all saves.

You could use ADVSAV: and just add the effect before you need to make a saving throw against whatever spell is coming your way; but using Magic Resistance is easier since you can leave it on and it will only give you advantage when you should get it. So just create an effect of Magic Resistance, set it to Self and no duration.
