I have a dialog that guides the user, explaining to them that the app needs full disk access. I noticed that this field is sometimes pre-populated (i.e. Terminal, Parallels tools, etc...). I want to be able to per-populate the list so the user can click on a button to open system preferences, and then just click the lock and check the check box. What can I do in the app so that my app is already pre-populated in this list?

Thank-you!!!

For anyone looking, any access to resources that need FDA approval from the app does not seem to pre-populate the list. You can create an embedded helper inside the app and launch it as a launchd service and it will populate the list.
