Hi,
Using _time we will get the time of the event. so by using earliest(_time), time is produced as the result. is there any function to return both date and time. i.e. time stamp together.

thank you for your time

Are you asking how to convert the _time value that you get in epoch format to something more humanly readable? In that case, use convert ctime(earliest(_time)) for that.
