sql - Truncate with condition

Question

truncate ->this resets the entire table, is there a way via truncate to reset particular records/check conditions.

For ex: i want to reset all the data and keep last 30 days inside the table.

Thanks.

No, TRUNCATE is all or nothing. You can do a DELETE FROM <table> WHERE <conditions> but this loses the speed advantages of TRUNCATE.
