That is correct, are you sure you're using a valid category ID? Example:

https://domain.com/rest/V1/categories/2

Then you can get the sub categories from the response, response.children.

    Just for future reference, with that endpoint, response.children returns a comma separated list of child IDs.

Your method is correct, but it will only return all child category ID's in comma-separated numbers. If you want to get sub-category information, then you need to write down a custom module with webapi.xml for your custom route to write a logic for this. This is not possible without doing customization in interface method.
