Answer
Use Append when you want to just add additional fields to the request resource during creation or update. Append is intended for non-tag properties. For tags it is recommended to use Modify effect instead.
Use Modify when you want to add, update or remove properties or tags on a subscription or resource during create or update. Existing non-compliant resources can be remediated with a remediation task.
