In XWiki we often say "everything is a document". The diagram that you
created is a document (a wiki page if you prefer). The diagram content
(its drawing instructions) is stored in the document content. The
diagram meta data is stored in objects attached to that document (just
edit the document with the object editor and see). So if you want to
display the diagram inside another document, the reference that you
have to pass to the display macro is the reference to the document
holding the diagram:

{{display reference="Diagram.MyFirstDiagram" /}}

The part before the diagram name (before the dot) is the space name,
and currently the Diagram application creates all diagrams in the
Diagram space.

Hope this helps,
Marius
