Many of the privileges in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy will automatically prompt if an app tries to do something that requires that privilege. For example, if an app tries to access the desktop you’ll see a prompt for Files & Folders > Desktop Folder.

This is not the case for Full Disk Access. There’s not automatic prompt here. The only way to get added to that list is for the user to add you via the UI.
