unable to get nodegroup info using eskctl

Total noob and have a runaway EKS cluster adding up $$ on AWS.

I'm having a tough time scaling down my cluster ad not sure what to do. I'm following the recommendations here: How to stop AWS EKS Worker Instances reference below

If I run: "eksctl get cluster", I get the following:

NAME REGION EKSCTL CREATED my-cluster us-west-2 True unique-outfit-1636757727 us-west-2 True

I then try the next line "eksctl get nodegroup --cluster my-cluster" and get:

2021-11-15 15:31:14 [ℹ] eksctl version 0.73.0 2021-11-15 15:31:14 [ℹ] using region us-west-2 Error: No nodegroups found

I'm desperate to try and scale down the cluster, but stuck in the above command. Seems everything installed and is running as intended, but the management part is failing! Thanks in advance! What am I doing wrong?

Reference --

eksctl get cluster

eksctl get nodegroup --cluster CLUSTERNAME

eksctl scale nodegroup --cluster CLUSTERNAME --name NODEGROUPNAME --nodes NEWSIZE

To completely scale down the nodes to zero use this (max=0 threw errors):

eksctl scale nodegroup --cluster CLUSTERNAME --name NODEGROUPNAME --nodes 0 --nodes-max 1 --nodes-min 0

You don't have managed node group therefore eksctl does not return any node group result. The same applies to aws eks cli.

...scaling down my cluster...

You can logon to the console, goto EC2->Auto Scaling Groups, locate the launch template and scale by updating the "Group details". Depends on how your cluster was created, you can look for the launch template tag kubernetes.io/cluster/<your cluster name> to find the correct template.
