do_action( 'admin_init' )

Since
2.5.0
Fires as an admin screen or script is being initialized.

Description

Note, this does not just run on user-facing admin screens.
It runs on admin-ajax.php and admin-post.php as well.

This is roughly analogous to the more general 'init' hook, which fires earlier.
