How to use $job.earliestTime$ token in "sendresults" add-on

I am using "sendresults" add-on in "Alert Actions" and tried using $job.earliestTime$ token in the "Message body" section. It works but it shows the value in EPOCH and I want to know how to display it in human readable format.

Try creating a new field in your alert and passing that in the alert action.

... | eval Time=stftime(job.earliestTime, "%c")

I tried your suggestion but the search is not recognizing the token "job.earliestTime". Also I dont want to show the extra field in result table.

 

MAIN SEARCH 
| eval job.eTime=strftime(job.earliestTime, "%c") 
| table FIELD1, FIELD2, job.eTime

 

Then I tried calling $result.job.eTime$ in "Alert Actions"
