How to store the values of multiple children and execute a function in the parent component in Vue

I have a component called Messaging Tool enter image description here

Those are all the children components inside the messaging tool.

This is what it looks like visually: enter image description here

Those 3 channels open forms of their own that will be used to send messages via appropriate channel. They are those:

enter image description here

Once the 'Save text' checkbox is clicked I need to export the fields in CSV. Once this send message is clicked a confirmation modal will appear.

I have to save all those fields properties and on the parent component execute either a CSV save or send message to the API.

My question is how do I do that? How do I save children components values? Obviously I can save the tickboxes values because they are in the main parent component, however, how do I save all those properties in a children components when a tickbox or a button in the parent button is executed?

In Vue 2, you can add v-model to all your <child>. That way, you can in the parent have a variable for each of your children that the children can use to sync their state to the parent:

https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#Using-v-model-on-Components

Note that Vue 2 only supports v-model for a single value. If a child needs to sync multiple values to the parent, you can instead use the .sync modifier:

If you use Vue 3, you can use multiple v-model:
