Variables losing value

Hey Guys,

This is my first post so apologies if I don't explain well.

Long story short....I am doing an AWS Iot project, I generate the openssl certificates in my nodejs backend and then I use the http client on the esp32 to send a request to my backend to give the esp32 the certificates. Certificates arrive fine, I parse it with cJSON and I can print it out. I then store the certificate in a global variable and then pass it to a function in the xTaskCreate.

The problem is that variable I pass doesn't keep the certificate value, when I print it out after passing it, I see some corrupted gibberish. The variables are devName, devCert and devKey!

Here is my entire code

I am only looking on a phone, but the global is a pointer and the string it points to is probably going out of scope when you delete after getting the JSON. I would investigate the lifetime and location of the string, and who is supposed to allocate and free memory.
