It is normal to request this, as Mac OS X is much more granular in it's security settings, so when an app uses an OS feature, it asks permission before it can use it.

I don't know the specifics for this app, but it could be in the file system access and how they save things that triggers it. Or they could use some of the AppleScript language to do some actions. It is just a notification that you accept, and then after that you are good to go.

File System Access is another permission on macOS. As installer requests that permission it is most likely for some kind of background task that needs to be initialized.
