e.event_end = Time.local + 30.minutes
a.attendees << {name: "John Smith", email: "john.smith@domain.com"}
new_event = client.create_event(user_id: "mailbox@domain.com", event: e)

# update an event
new_event.attendees << {name: "Foo Bar", email: "foo.bar@domain.com"}
client.update_event(user_id: "mailbox@domain.com", event: new_event)
