This issue occurs when all day event is created. Since the scraper collects all the events of a day, for each day in sequence, an all day event spanning n days will be presented to the scraper n times, creating n copies.

To resolve, split the all day events into a separate category and remove events with the same properties which span consecutive days, creating a combined event which spans over the full range of days occuring. Note that for a duplicate to be valid there must be all the consecutive events in the duplicates list, disjoint elements means we arent dealing with duplicates.

Does not use XPaths for the UI elements, breaks if 2fa is not required

Google cloud code requires an application credentials.json file to authorise the code to communicate as an application on the server. Users authenticating with this application is the more correct model. We can keep the selenium code as part of the local package to avoid sending secrets over HTTP, and then all the scraped events can get sent to the serverside application to be put into the right calendar.
