Question 1 of 40Assessment

When designing an API for partial resource updates, what is the primary difference between JSON Patch (RFC 6902) and JSON Merge Patch (RFC 7386)?

A. JSON Patch is more intuitive as it simply sends the fields to be updated, whereas Merge Patch uses an array of operations.

B. JSON Patch allows for explicit operations like 'test', 'remove', and 'move', providing more granular control than Merge Patch.

C. JSON Merge Patch is better suited for updating collections and arrays, while JSON Patch is limited to object properties.

D. Merge Patch requires the client to know the current state of the resource, while JSON Patch is completely stateless.
