hello.js Yahoo API Integration

Question

I am trying to do a Yahoo oAuth using hello.js. Please find my code that I have written:

window.onload = function()
{
hello.init(
{
   // "yahoo" : "M0FZ5t7i"
    "yahoo" : "dj0yJmk9WGJDUHpwMkxBNUxEJmQ9WVdrOU4xcFBZVUo1TldrbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD1jMw--"
},
{
  redirect_uri:'staging.name.com',
  oauth_proxy: "https://auth-server.herokuapp.com/proxy"
  //https://auth-server.herokuapp.com/   https://auth-server.herokuapp.com/proxy
});

}

and on click of a button I have added:

 hello("yahoo").login().then(function()
    {
        // Get Profile
        return hello("yahoo").api('me');
    }).then(function(p)
    {
      console.log(p.name);

    }).then(null, function(e){
        console.error(e);
        alert(e);
    });

I am getting invalid credential. Also my question is in client_id, what should I use consumer key or Appid?

I have also https://auth-server.herokuapp.com/ to add as a proxy. What field value should go in it? Also what does domain and reference stand for?

Drew gave you an answer below, was it of any use? It is usual here to upvote and/or accept answers that are useful, so helpers get a little bit of encouragement to carry on helping. Let me know if you would like to know how to do that. — halfer, Nov 02 '15 at 21:29

client_id should be the consumer_key in OAuth1.
domain should be staging.name.com in your case
reference is an arbitary value, i.e. "Local Yahoo"

Your value for redirect_uri should be a full URI (i.e. http://staging.name.com/redirect.html. Or a relative path.
