Tableau how to convert a dimension into a datetime -


i'm using tableau 9.0, trying calculate service outage time. have 2 dimensions work -start time , end time. when @ values in format:

example:

outage start:       outage end:  1452005400          1,452,011,400 

ideally i'd convert current format datetime work find outage time down seconds.

does 1 know how might go this?

depending on epoch format use, formula trick:

dateadd('second', [epoch format time], date('1/1/1970')) 

for example value of 1452011400 return jan 5, 2016 - 4.30pm.

keep in mind there 2 epoch formats, make sure use correct one: unix epoch typically 1/1/1970, while microsoft com epoch 12/30/1899.

i have used unix format in example above (the last argument dateadd funciton).
