There are a number of parts you will need for a complete flat towing setup for your 2020 Ford F-150 Raptor, including base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, supplemental braking and a high low adapter. I've listed the recommended parts for this setup below for you to easily find them.

Base Plates: Curt Base Plates with Removable Arms # C78FR (compatible with Curt and Blue Ox tow bars)
Tow Bar: Blue Ox Avail # BX7420 (comes with safety cables integrated)
Tow Bar Wiring: Roadmaster Flexo Coil Wiring with Diodes # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking: Demco SBS Stay In Play DUO # SM99251 (for hydraulic brakes) or # SM99243 (for air brakes)

You will need to measure to find the correct high/low adapter to ensure that your tow bar is level, so I've linked an article to this answer that explains how to do this, as well as a link to our entire selection of high/low adapters. I've also linked some helpful installation videos using similar vehicles that you may want to have a look at as well if you're planning on completing everything yourself.
