Use dynamic input as slot data

I felt like this should be extremely simple but I can't seem to find anything in the lex console that will allow dynamic user input. For example:

"Remind me to brush my teeth"

Where "brush my teeth" is the user's input, and not some predefined slot.
Is this not possible with lex?

  hi, yes you can accomplish this with a slot.

  In your example, you can create a slot called "actionInput", and give it a few sample inputs "brush my teeth", "pick up kids", "exercise" etc.

  So if in your intent you define an utterance "remind me to {actionInput}", it will figure out if you say "Remind me to brush my teeth" to match the "brush my teeth" to that slot
