Prevent refresh of a table in Table.combine
Hello,
I have created a PBI file that consists of:
Book1 will consist of data that will not change. Book2 will consist of data that will change. Query2 is a union of Book1 and Book2.
Goals:
1) In Desktop view, the user will see only Query2 which I've accomplished
2) When I refresh Query2, I only want the refresh of Book2 since this will be dynamic data. How can I accomplish this? Even though I specifically set option to not refresh Book1, it still does when I refresh Query2
Hope my question is easy to understand with screenshots. Thanks!

Even though I specifically set option to not refresh Book1, it still does when I refresh Query2That is by design. The "do not refresh" request will be ignored for queries that other queries depend upon.

Thanks for replying. Can you think of a setup that'll accomplish what I'm trying? The static dataset is HUGE, so it is cumbersome and waste of resource to refresh it.

Consider using incremental refresh or other manual partition management processes.
