Unable to send links between my developers via iMessage, as the "preview" feature of iMessage in iOS11 & iOS10 is making it hard to see the exact URL structure, because it is instead inserting a link preview. Is there any way to disable this? Driving us crazy!!

Most Android messaging apps will show the full URL and a rich link preview, so you should only really worry about doing this with friends who use Messages on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Before you paste or type in a URL, prefix it with a period, then add another period after the URL.
In the Settings pane, select Mail > Compose and reply. Scroll down to Link preview.
Option 1: Put the link in a sentence, or between words Simply placing the link being sent through Messages in between words or in a sentence will remove the message preview on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Just note that the words or text must appear on both sides of the URL to work as intended.
Surround the URL with periods.
Example ".http://google.com."
iOS even removes the periods for you So it shows as "http://google.com" < no periods

Some of the other blogs I have read suggest that for the preview to work certain requirements must be met, if these are not met the preview will not be displayed (this should mean the full URL path is then visible):
