Does anyone have a source for a comprehensive list of the legal challenges filed by the Trump campaign so far and which ones have been successful to date?

This list is everybody, not just just suits filed by the Trump campaign.

1) Michigan: The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit Wednesday to halt the state’s vote count, claiming it did not have proper access to observing the opening of absentee ballots.
2) Pennsylvania: Trump campaign also filed a lawsuit to halt vote counting in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania over a lack of "transparency."
3) Georgia: The Trump campaign announced Wednesday night that it had filed a lawsuit in the state, asking to order Georgia election officials to follow the law on storing and counting absentee ballots.
4) Wisconsin: The Trump campaign said it would ask for an immediate recount in Wisconsin.

Here is what I am seeing in regards to suits filed so far by the Trump campaign.
Both of these have already been dismissed

Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. v. Benson
Status: Suit dismissed by state court of claims
Issues: Whether Michigan’s constitution and election laws require that absentee ballots be counted in the presence of an “elections inspector” from each political party; and if so, whether the state should stop counting ballots until that requirement is met or separate ballots counted without representatives of both parties present.
State: Michigan
Court: Michigan Court of Claims

Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. v. Boockvar
Status: Suit dismissed by district court; additional drop-off sites, lifting of signature-matching requirement, and rescinding of ban on out-of-county poll workers upheld
Issues: Whether a number of Pennsylvania elections accommodations in light of the coronavirus pandemic – providing additional drop-off sites and alleviating signature-matching requirements for absentee ballots, as well as lifting a restriction on employing out-of-county poll workers – violate state election law and the U.S. Constitution.
State: Pennsylvania
Court: U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania

Have not seen anything indicating the appeals have been filed or accepted yet but time will tell.

The only thing that is going to matter is what can be proven in court.
