Conditional Load

Is it possible to include logic in the source query such that it will only reload information based on that condition.  I have a table which after 30 days will be historical in nature and will never change.  The table is based on a vendors Web Rest API which appears to prevent me from using incremental refresh.  I am therefor appending multiple tables (each covering a period of time) into a single fact table but I don't want to have to reload every table with every refresh nor do I want to have to update the dataset every month.

Hi, in Power Query, right click the table you don't want to refresh, and uncheck "Include in Report refresh"

Thank you for the response.  My problem is that this requires manual intervention which I am trying to avoid.
