Configmap not getting applied to deployment container (helm chart) as env (using envFrom)

Question

I am facing an issue with helm charts deployments. I am trying to apply configmap to a deployment but containers/app is not getting the env inside the app. I am using this in my deployment.yaml:

          envFrom:
            - configMapRef:
                name: env-configs 

but if i set env using env: it does get the value successfully. here are details:
