IIRC Nessus Essentials allows the use of the API, with the exception of controlling a scan (launch). The Nessus API documentation can be found when you login to the scanner, view the account, click on API keys, and click on API Documentation. (or just add /api to the end of the url)
nessrest has been virtually abandoned since Nessus 7 came out, so tends to be Nessus 6 and prior supported.
I believe pyTenable will be the way to go, but currently only supports Tenable.io and Tenable.sc. They have Nessus subbed in, but no functionality to it yet.
For small jobs, I tend to use the API directly, but it does take some patience to research what is being sent and retrieved from the scanner.
I apologize that this is not a direct answer, but may give some direction.

With Nessus Professional, you are still restricted in endpoints for creating and launching scans. Read more at https://community.tenable.com/s/article/The-differences-between-Nessus-6-and-Nessus-7 .
You will need Nessus Manager or automate scans through Tenable.io or Tenable.sc.

You can analyze their UI API and write some scripts that utilize UI API. Burp Suite can help you with it.
I solve it in my scripts for scans changes (add targets)
