I found the answer. one must keep the 'dataKey' value to epoch time, and then use cellDataGetter() method to convert the cell data to timestamp like this:

cellDataGetter={({ rowData }) => {
const timestamp = new Date(parseInt(rowData.epochTimeVal, 10) * 1000).toLocaleString();
return (timestamp);
}}
