I would be happy to help you find all of those parts for your 2022 Hyundai Palisade. Lets start with the hitch, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13427. This is a custom fit hitch receiver that bolts directly to your Palisade's frame with included hardware.

You are going to need two separate wiring harnesses to have a 7-Way connector on your Hyundai. The first one is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # CU94FR. This custom-fit connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side interior trim panel in your rear cargo area. This will provide a 4-flat vehicle connector.

The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your vehicle with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector.

To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball, and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
