Can't use the rows being retrieved from my database to build <li> items – Jquery ajax

app.get('/api/getTransactions/', function(req, res){
  console.log("GET: Transactions");

  let sql = 'SELECT * FROM balance;';
  db.all(sql, [], function(err, rows){
        var result = {};
    if(err){
      res.status(404);
      result["error"] = err.message;
    } else {
        console.log(JSON.stringify(rows));
        res.json(rows);
    }
  });
});


function createTL() {
  $.ajax({
    method: "GET",
    url: "/api/getTransactions/",
    data: {}
  }).done(function(rows){
    console.log("Request to fetch transactions");
    if("error" in rows){
      console.log(rows["error"]);
    } else {
      $(".tl").html('');
      var tList = '';
      console.log("Got Here");
      console.log(rows.length);
      for(var i=0; i++; i < rows.length){
        console.log("data");
        tList += '<li>Transaction: ' + rows[i].id + ' - ' + rows[i].text + ' - $' + rows[i].amount + '</li>';
        console.log(rows[i].id + " - " + rows[i].text + " - " + rows[i].amount);
      }
      $(".tl").html(tList);
    }
  });
}

There is no problem connecting to the database, and I can get the number of entries being retrieved from rows.length, but I can’t figure out why I can’t translate the rows into li elements. Also, the first function is from the express app file, while the second function createTL() is from a static_files directory.

UPDATE: I got it working by altering the way the data was being sent and received, this is the working code.

app.get('/api/getTransactions/', function(req, res){
    var transactions = [];
  console.log("GET: Transactions");

  let sql = 'SELECT * FROM balance;';
  db.all(sql, [], function(err, rows){
        var result = {};
    if(err){
      res.status(404);
      result["error"] = err.message;
            res.json(result);
            console.log(JSON.stringify(result));
    } else {
      rows.forEach((row) => {
                transactions.push(row);
      });
            res.json(transactions);
      console.log(JSON.stringify(transactions));
    }
  });
});

function createTL() {
  $.ajax({
    method: "GET",
    url: "/api/getTransactions/",
    data: {}
  }).done(function(rows){
    console.log("Request to fetch transactions");
    if("error" in rows){
      console.log(rows["error"]);
    } else {
      $("#tl").html('')
      var tList = '';
      for(var i=0; i<rows.length; i++){
        tList += '<li>ID: ' + JSON.stringify(rows[i]["id"]) + ' - ' + JSON.stringify(rows[i]["text"]) + '- $' + JSON.stringify(rows[i]["amount"]) + '</li>';
      }
      $("#tl").html(tList);
    }
  });
}
