what sand do i use for flagstone?

im doing a cheap diy flagstone patio project. what sand should i use to fill in the cracks? secondly, whats the difference between play sand and all purpose sand?

None as far I can see except for the price. You just need sand that doesn’t have large particles that would hinder the leveling of the stones ie; small pebbles
