Convert epoch time to days, hours minutes, seconds

I would like to take a large epoch time (8492963) and convert it into Days:Hours:Minutes:Seconds (for example 98:07:09:23).

Is there a command to execute this, or does it all need to be done using simple math?

You're talking about a time interval in seconds that needs to be converted into readable format? Try this:

... | eval readable = tostring(interval_in_seconds, "duration")

For your example that will set readable to "98+07:09:23"
