Users are created in two ways in my application.
The registration form uses a gravity form hook to register the user and send to various api’s.
But when creating a user from the admin panel, we use the ‘user_register‘ hook.
This causes a conflict because in the gravity form procedure , when calling wp_insert_user(), it triggers the ‘user_register‘ hook , interrupting the script which isn’t finished saving the user to the api’s.
So I would have liked a hook which is only triggered when run from the admin panel.
Can this be accomplished?

Method 1
You could use the user_register hook, then check if the user registration is happening from an admin interface with is_admin():
is_admin()
Determines whether the current request is for an administrative interface page.
