Creating an EKS cluster with an OIDC provider for IRSA using eksctl

I create an AWS EKS cluster with

eksctl create cluster ...

The cluster is created and shows an OIDC provider URL

Cluster Overview

If I look in the Authentication tab it shows No oidc identity providers

No OIDC providers

Is this the expected behavior of the web console when an OIDC provider has already been created?

I’m trying to get IRSA working for this cluster and some of the instructions I’ve found say that I have to run

eksctl utils associate-iam-oidc-provider ...

after cluster creation. I’ve done that, but the the web console shows no OIDC providers.

Can anyone explain what is happening?
