To Install a brake controller in your 2019 Ford F-150 you are going to need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 which will give you a 7-way connector, circuit breakers and the rest of the hardware needed to install a brake controller.

I have added a link to a video showing the install of a brake controller in an F-150 which details the process you need to take, and I highly recommend checking it out.
