Conditional for if request is admin-ajax

    I would like to redirect users out of the wp-admin. For that I use the code below. It works as intended, except when an ajax request is made. 

    function sd_redirect_out_of_admin()  {
    if ( is_admin() && ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {
        if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
            wp_redirect( get_permalink( ACCOUNT_PAGE ) );
        } else {
            wp_redirect( home_url() );
        }
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'init', 'sd_redirect_out_of_admin' );

    Admin-ajax.php is in the admin and thus the user will not reach this and thus throws an error.

    Is there a way to check if a user is logged in and requests this URL ?

    Something like this will probably do what you want:

    if (defined('DOING_AJAX')) {
	// URL is admin-ajax.php
}
else {
	// URL is something else
}
