Parsing JSON code with ESP8266

Question

I'm testing a piece of code to see if I can parse the JSON code I'm receiving. I basically copied the code from: ArduinoJson/assistant

So I've placed the received JSON string in a const char* to see if it works, but I get a weird response instead of a normal integer result. Does somebody know what is going on here?

PS I know it's a huge response from the server, while I only need like 2 data's from.

Here's my code:

#include <ArduinoJson.h>

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    Serial.println("Hello");

    DynamicJsonBuffer jsonBuffer(10833);
    //Serial.println("Buffer" + bufferSize);

    const char* json = "{\"devices\":{\"thermostats\":{\"e97ayjdpIOkPa4vZFxHggZMXiHKfhsyU\":{\"humidity\":40,\"locale\":\"nl-NL\",\"temperature_scale\":\"C\",\"is_using_emergency_heat\":false,\"has_fan\":false,\"software_version\":\"5.6.6-4\",\"has_leaf\":true,\"where_id\":\"YygkopgUUc_cIFnCNG7GRDIIQnENO0ScVx9Pa78qfG7XyH-9WDdVgA\",\"device_id\":\"e97ayjdpIOkPa4vZFxHggZMXiHKfhsyU\",\"name\":\"Downstairs\",\"can_heat\":true,\"can_cool\":false,\"target_temperature_c\":13.5,\"target_temperature_f\":57,\"target_temperature_high_c\":24,\"target_temperature_high_f\":75,\"target_temperature_low_c\":20,\"target_temperature_low_f\":68,\"ambient_temperature_c\":18,\"ambient_temperature_f\":65,\"away_temperature_high_c\":24,\"away_temperature_high_f\":76,\"away_temperature_low_c\":8.5,\"away_temperature_low_f\":48,\"eco_temperature_high_c\":24,\"eco_temperature_high_f\":76,\"eco_temperature_low_c\":8.5,\"eco_temperature_low_f\":48,\"is_locked\":false,\"locked_temp_min_c\":20,\"locked_temp_min_f\":68,\"locked_temp_max_c\":22,\"locked_temp_max_f\":72,\"sunlight_correction_active\":false,\"sunlight_correction_enabled\":true,\"structure_id\":\"vEJb634MNif-xVxcn3hIdIAAdT2p5L7beo2amUiTuBVoEPy3C0PAFw\",\"fan_timer_active\":false,\"fan_timer_timeout\":\"1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z\",\"fan_timer_duration\":15,\"previous_hvac_mode\":\"\",\"hvac_mode\":\"heat\",\"time_to_target\":\"~0\",\"time_to_target_training\":\"ready\",\"where_name\":\"Downstairs\",\"label\":\"\",\"name_long\":\"Downstairs

The serial monitor gives me this result:

You can't concatenate a char array and an integer with a +.

Call separately print with a string and then println with an integer.

Serial.print("ambTemp:");
Serial.println(ambTemp);
