ToMillis
ToMillis( value )Description
The ToMillis function converts a value to the number of milliseconds
since Unix epoch (midnight, January 1, 1970), if possible.
Attempting to convert a value to a number of milliseconds which has no numeric representation results in an "invalid argument" error.

client.query([
q.ToMillis(q.Epoch(1, 'second')),
