Well, if it is a Unix timestamp, then it is the number of seconds from 1/1/1970 (UTC). So something like this calculated column should suffice:
UTCTime = VAR UnixDays = [UnixTime]/(60*60*24) RETURN (DATEVALUE("1/1/1970")+UnixDays)Basically, convert the number of seconds to the number of days and then add it to the date value of 1/1/1970. Essentially, the same thing you would do in Excel.
