changeColumnSorting Action ({ columnName: string, direction?: 'asc' | 'desc' | null, keepOther?: boolean | Array<String>, sortIndex?: number }) => void Changes the column's sorting direction. keepOther accepts true (keeps existing sorting), a column name array (keeps sorting by specified columns) and false (resets sorting).
